They are looking for
me
A man called his friend’s house
and a tiny voice greeted him.
“Is your Daddy there?” he
asked.
“Yes.”
“Could I speak with him?”
“He’s busy,” the little voice
replied.
“Well, can I speak to your
mother?”
“Nope, she is busy, too.”
“Well then, let me talk
with your brother.”
“He’s busy, too.”
“For goodness sake,
what are they
so busy doing?”
he asked in
astonishment.
“They are looking
for me!”
A man was driving when a traffic camera flashed.
He thought his picture was taken for exceeding
the speed limit, even though he knew he was not
speeding. Just to be sure, he went around the block
and passed the same spot, driving even more slowly,
but again the camera flashed. He thought this was
quite funny, so he slowed down even further as he
drove past the area, but the traffic camera flashed
yet again. He tried a fourth time with the same
result. The fifth time he was laughing when the
camera flashed as he rolled past at a snail’s pace.
Two weeks later, he got five traffic fine letters in
the mail for driving without a seat belt.
The population of this country is
about 237 million.
104 million are retired.
That leaves 133 million to do the work.
There are 85 million in school, which
leaves 48 million to do the work.
Of this there are 29 million employed
by the federal government, leaving 19
million to do the work.
2.8 million are in the Armed Forces,
which leaves 16.2 million work.
Take from the total the
14,800,000 people who work for
State and City Governments and
that leaves 1.4 million to do the
work.
At any given time there are
188,000 people in hospitals,
leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.
Now, there are 1,211,998
people in prisons.
That leaves just two people
to do the work.
You and me.
And you’re reading this
joke...

Who Does the Work?
