Your tax dollars at work........

The following was heard over the intercom system at my workplace yesterday......

Ladies and gentlemen,
The following announcement is a test of the intercom system in the building. If you are not able to hear this message, please contact the security desk at 999-555-1212. Thank you.

I'm sure you all can figure out the obviously ironic nature of the above announcement. I did note to myself after hearing this announcement that it's no wonder why comedians always have plenty of material. There are plenty of stupid things that happen all around us in daily life that keep the comedians gainfully employed and full of fresh ideas without them having to raise a finger.
