It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it.

A Job in America


Joe Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock (MADE IN
JAPAN) for 6 a.m. While his coffeepot (MADE IN CHINA) was perking, he
shaved with his electric razor (MADE IN HONG KONG) He put on a dress shirt
(MADE IN SRI LANKA), designer jeans (MADE IN SINGAPORE) and tennis shoes
(MADE IN KOREA). After cooking his breakfast in his new electric skillet
(MADE IN INDIA) he sat down with his calculator (MADE IN MEXICO) to see
how much he could spend today. After setting his watch (MADE IN TAIWAN) to

the radio (MADE IN INDIA) he got in his car (MADE IN GERMANY) filled it
with GAS from Saudi Arabia and continued his search for a good paying
AMERICAN JOB At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day
checking his Computer (Made In Malaysia), Joe decided to relax for a
while. He put on his sandals (MADE IN BRAZIL) poured himself a glass of
wine (MADE IN FRANCE)and turned on his TV (MADE IN
INDONESIA), and then wondered why he can't find a good paying job in ..
AMERICA.


I have a few comments for Joe. First of all, it sounds like you are doing all right with your fancy car, electronic gadgets and snooty wine. Do you really want a factory job? I doubt it. How about we list all the things made in America you used or consumed through out your day. No one made you by these un-American products, so I don't think you should keep whinning. Join the real world of the rest of us "Joes"!
