Shrubenfreude

I was going to continue my “work is bringing me down” theme but then I realized that Shrub is struggling as well. Let’s see how we compare:

Shrub – Iraq appears to be heading towards civil war as sectarian violence threatens to overtake the country. What a surprise!

Me – We have some sectarian violence of our own as everyone appears to be out to get the IT guy.

Winner: Shrub

Shrub – A poll of US troops in Iraq shows that 72 percent of them think the United States should get out of Iraq within the year; 29 percent say the U.S. should leave Iraq immediately.

Me – I keep getting more work but not getting any help. (I know, poor me, waaah)

Winner: Shrub

Shrub – Looks like he was briefed on the potential levee failure in the Big Easy. I’m shocked he didn’t remember.

Me – I just found how much some people are paid. Surprisingly, the amount of work doesn’t correlate with the amount paid in some cases.

Winner: Shrub

Shrub – His approval ratings are going down, down, down. Which has gotta hurt, particularly in those red states.

Me – Based on my recent review, my approval ratings are up.

Winner: Me

Shrub – He’s surrounded by quality employees.

Me - I’ve got a co-worker who can’t operate anything.

Winner: Shrub

It’s almost a clean sweep for Shrub. Let’s hope things don’t improve! Way to go Shrub! I feel better already.
