WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—President
Obama’s proposal to give workers six weeks of paid leave is meeting
strong opposition from a group of people who annually receive
thirty-three weeks of paid leave.
Members
of the group heard the President’s proposal on Tuesday night, one of
the few nights of the year when they are required to report to their
workplace.
The opponents of paid leave, who show
up for work a hundred and thirty-seven days per year and receive paid
leave for the other two hundred and twenty-eight, were baffled by other
moments in the President’s speech.
For example,
they were confused by Obama’s challenge to try to survive on a full-time
job that pays fifteen thousand dollars, since they all currently hold a
part-time job that pays a hundred and seventy-four thousand dollars.
