Never enough...


Has the icy winter wind got your shoulders hunched?  The short, dark days got you in the doldrums?  The holiday stress got your knickers in a twist?  Join the kvetchfest: 
 
Of course there’s never enough money.
The house is never nice enough
Neighborhood never exclusive enough
Lakeview never expansive enough
Diamonds never brilliant enough
License plate number never low enough
Waistline never small enough
Thighs never slim enough
Breasts never perky enough
Six-packs never defined enough
Children never disciplined enough
Husbands never attentive enough
Wives never understanding enough
Teachers never dedicated enough
Students never respectful enough
Employees never flexible enough
Bosses never generous enough
Putzfrau never thorough enough
Labels never designer enough
Driver in front never quick enough to go when light turns green
Cashier never scans products fast enough
Pedestrians don't cross the street fast enough 

In Zurich, it’s just never enough…

A new campaign by the city authorities -- how pathetic is it that they have to remind us to be friendly?!
