双语笑话：压力太大

Too Much Pressure

For a couple years I’ve been blaming it on lack of sleep and too much pressure from my job，but now I found out the real reason：I’m tired because I’m overworked．The population of this country is 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 to do the work．Take from the total the 14.8 million 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 sitting at the table reading jokes．

压力太大

多年以来我一直感到很疲惫，我曾经把原因归咎为缺乏睡眠以及来自于工作上的巨大压力。但是，我现在找到了真正的原因：我感到疲倦是因为我超负荷工作。我们这个国家有2.37亿人口。其中1.04亿已经退休了。还剩下1.33亿在工作。有8，500万人还在上学，工作的就剩下4，800万。这其中还有2，900万联邦政府雇员，真正做事的就剩1，900万人，又有280万人在服兵役，就剩下1，620万人在工作。从中再去掉各州和市政府的雇员1，480万人，还剩下140万人工作。但又有18.8万人生病住院，现在只剩下121.2万人工作。其中1，211，998人在坐牢。这样仅剩下两个人在工作，就是你和我。而你却坐在桌边看笑话。
