.....Yeah ok Just Me.
 
  I’d have a foot long hero for lunch,
then work like a dog the rest of the day
‘and believe me that’s just an expression here',
playing catchup
cause I goofed off most the day up until that point
with others in coffee shops, diners, or bars.

Extending breaks was the norm before
they the company
hooked us up to computers,

but believe me there was at least fifteen good years
before they were able to keep tabs on us,
the ones that worked outside in the field
and charged the company sixty-five minutes on paper
to tighten a screw at a job site sent to
where you spent less then ten minutes at.

The American worker don’t let them b/s you!
Nine out of ten don’t give a shit
and never will..........

How many American Workers does it take to change a light bulb?

1) One low man on the totem pole to do the work,
2) Two low men on the totem pole to clean up,
3) Three supervisors to stand around and watch, one to take notes and four to report back to the boss (total of 8) , and
4) Four Union men, to make sure everyone is doing their job, and not interfering with any other Union Men's Jobs, one to take notes, and four to report back to the boss (total of 9) .

This makes a total work force of 20 American Workers who are Gainfully Employed, as compared to one lone worker in the Third World Countries who give America such cheap labor. He or she changes the bulb, cleans up the mess, reports back to his boss, ready for the next job, and all in less than three minutes!

And you were wondering why America was in such financial problems! ! Thanks, Mike, for setting us straight! ! Laughed so hard!

It is just human nature....why should American's be any different when the people in congress who represent them aren't?
