TIRED! Yes, I'm tired. For several years I've been blaming it on middle age, poor blood, lack of vitamins, air pollution, saccharin, obesity, dieting, under-arm odour, yellow wax build up and another dozen maladies that make you wonder if life is really worth living.But I find out it isn't that! I'm tired because I'm overworked. The population of this country is 55 million. 25 million are retired, that leaves 30 million to do the work. There are 19 million in school. That leaves 11 million to do the work. Of this total 2 million are unemployed, and 4 million are employed by the government. That leaves 5 million to do the work. 1 million are in the armed forces, which leaves 4 million to do the work. From that total 3 million are employed by County and Borough Councils, leaving 1 million to do the work. There are 620,000 people in hospitals, and 379,998 in prisons. That leaves just two people to do the work. You and Me! And if you are sitting on your arse reading this... No wonder I'm so bloody tired!
