The strong
young man at the construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone
in a feat of strength.
He made a special
case of making fun of one of the older workmen. After several minutes,
the older worker had
had enough.
"Why don't
you put your money where your mouth is," he said. "I will bet a week's
wages that I can haul
something in
a wheelbarrow over to that outbuilding that you won't be able to wheel
back."
"You're on,
old man," the braggart replied. "Let's see what you got."
The old man
reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to
the young man, he said,
"All right.
Get in."
