Ants
Ants are hard workers. How long do you do work in school? Well, ants work longer than you do in school. Ants in fact are one of the strongest insect on Earth.
Strength
Ants are some of the strongest insects. These insects are so strong that they can lift up to 13.1 mega joules. These creatures can carry objects that are up to 500 milligrams a day. An ant can carry something that is 50 pounds to us. That means that they carry 5x their size. Ants aren't the same with their food like us.
Food
Ants have their own way with food. These old creatures take the leaves and bring them straight to the hill.They collect leaves in chambers to make fungus. With their saliva and leaves, they make a paste to eat. The paste is like a fungus. When winter comes this pasty fungus becomes food. An ant can go on for a long time working.
Work
Ants work constantly in their lives. They carry objects that are 100x their weight. When working they have no breaks like recess. They work for 19 hours each day. In some schools the hours are 6-8. The distance of the food and their homes are sometimes 100 milligrams. In school you walk less than that.

Ants have long working lives. Do you want to complain about school now?
