My husband brought home a Golf Digest the other day. So I was flipping through it tonight as I watched one of my favourite shows, Dirty Jobs and here's what occured to me.
Tiger Woods made $122,702,706 last year. Yes, that's right. Over one hundred and twenty-two MILLION dollars for PLAYING GOLF! Okay, in truth, he only made a measly $22.9 million playing golf. The other $99 million he made in endorsements, appearances, etc. Now, don't get me wrong, I think Tiger's great. He's done amazing things to the world of golf and brought in a whole new audience. He's an amazing athlete and he deserves to be paid well.
But what about the poor guy in the waste water treatment plant Mike Rowe was working with today? He spends over 40 hours a week making sure our poop gets taken care of. Think about that job. Think about spending every day walking through poop. And the smell. . . .!!!! Oh my disgusting-ness. These workers see every disgusting thing people flush down their toilets (because apparently they don't "see" the waste baskets right beside the toilets) and then these workers make sure it all gets cleaned out before it gets dumped into the ocean.
Now call me crazy, but don't you think these guys deserve the $100 million for doing their job? I don't know what they get paid, all I know is that it's not nearly enough!! How does this make sense to anyone??
There is something wrong with this world, I'm tellin' ya!!
And boo to all those idiots on Survivor who voted off Yau Man! Boo hiss!!
