Interesting Article

I found this article that stated " The average American spent 8.6 hours a day sleeping last year, only 3.7 hours working and had 5.1 leisure hours -- half of which was spent watching television, a survey showed on Tuesday. "

Only 3.7 hours working?! I want that job. Of course they don't mention how much money they make. heh. Of course, in reality I'm glad im going into medicine. Even if it does mean I'll work 25 hours a day.

Here is the article: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=573&ncid=757&e=4&u=/nm/20040915/od_nm/life_time_dc

"Average American" hmmm..

With the large percentages of the population that are either 1) retired, 2) below the working age, or 3) unemployed and are contributing 0 hrs/day to the "average american work day" it's no suprise that it's under 4 hrs. Even if everybody else was working 24/7, it would still be a low number.

Statistics are one type of lie.
