Good paying job ! what do you think possible?

Joe Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock for

6 am.


(MADE IN JAPAN )

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

and turned on h is

TV

and then wondered

why he can't find

a

good paying job
in AMERICA ...
