The Four Cats

The Four Cats

Four men were bragging about how smart their cats were.
The first man was an Engineer,
The second man was an Accountant,
The third man was a Chemist, and
The fourth man was a Government Employee.

To show off, the Engineer called his cat, "T-square, do your stuff."

T-square pranced over to the desk, took out some paper and pen and promptly drew a circle, a square, and a triangle.
Everyone agreed that was pretty smart.

But the Accountant said his cat could do better. He called his cat and said, "Spreadsheet, do your stuff."

Spreadsheet went out to the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into 4 equal piles of 3 cookies.
Everyone agreed that was good.

But the Chemist said his cat could do better. He called his cat and said, "Measure, do your stuff."

Measure got up, walked to the fridge, took out a quart of milk, got a 10 ounce glass from the cupboard and poured exactly 8 ounces without spilling a drop, into the glass.
Everyone agreed that was pretty good.

Then the three men turned to the Government Employee and said, "What can your cat do?"
The Government Employee called his cat and said, "CoffeeBreak, do your stuff."

CoffeeBreak jumped to his feet.......
Ate the cookies........
Drank the milk.....
Pooped on the paper.......
Screwed the other three cats........

Claimed he injured his back while doing so.
 
Filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions.......
 
Put in for Workers Compensation.................. and went home for the rest of the day on sick leave............

I've always wondered what percentage of the population relies on the taxpayers for their income.

Everyone from Government Employees, to Military, to welfare recipients.

Defense Contractors, Aerospace Companies, to Firefighter and Police.

Teachers and librarians to tree cutters and road maintainers.

All the businesses that provide services to all of the above. from restaurants, to grocery stores, to doctors and lawyers.

No wonder I pay so much in taxes!

I for one would like to thank you for your many years of support.    :)
