A 17 year old applied for a job with a road construction crew. The young man was of slight build and the foreman for the road crew eyed him suspiciously as he stood there.
The foreman said “I’m afraid you just won’t do, son. This is heavy work and I don’t think you can keep up with the other men.”
The young man looked out at the crew all leaning on their shovels and turned back to the foreman.
“I may not be able to do as much as these men can do,” the boy said, “but I can damn sure do as much as they will do.”
He got the job.
Have a great week.
