There are those of us who have to work. Farmers, peons, slaves.
housewives

There are those of us who like to work. Addicts, obsessive
compulsives, those with a guilty conscience.

There are those who imitate work but don't understand it: children,
computer programmers, politicians

There are those who shirk work: fisherman, layabouts, winos,

There are those who put it off: internet addicts, procrastinators,
dreamers.

There are those who think work is sex: Actors, gigolos, dogs,
stockbrokers

There are those who think sex is work: housewives, prostitutes, actors,
board members, politicians.

There are those that steal for a living: politicians, lawyers, mafiosi,
any public company.

There are those whose work is to steal and get caught: jailbirds (see
symbiotic life forms above)

There are those that believe the highest form of work is stealing
and then lying about it while giving yourself a medal: Politicans,
lawyers, charity organizers, hollywood producers.

There are those who waste the fruits of work wilfully or wantonly:
investors, politicians, mining promoters.

There are those who cannot work and thus do something else: teachers,
,children, board members, gigolos, mining promoters.

There are those whose work is pointless and requires no skill: geologists
phrenologists, maypole dancers, board members, newsanchors.

There are those who optimize work in the most useful and satisifying
way: Newsletter writers, prospectors

And then there are those who are allergic to useful work in the worst
way: Bill Jackson
