Learning a trade
 
A young family moved into a house next door to a
vacant lot. One day a construction crew turned up to
start building a house on the empty lot.

The young family's 5-year-old daughter naturally took
an interest in all the activity going on next door and
started talking with the workers. She hung around and
eventually the construction crew, all of them
gems-in-the-rough, more or less adopted her as a kind
of project mascot.

They chatted with her, let her sit with them while
they had coffee and lunch breaks, and gave her little
jobs to do here and there to make her feel important.
At the end of the first week they even presented her
with a pay envelope containing a dollar.

The little girl took this home to her mother who said
all the appropriate words of admiration and suggested
that they take the dollar pay she had received to the
bank the next day to start a savings account.

When they got to the bank the teller was equally
impressed with the story and asked the little girl how
she had come by her very own pay check at such a young
age.

The little girl proudly replied, "I worked all last
week with a crew building a house."

My goodness gracious," said the teller, "and will you
be working on the house again this week, too?"

The little girl replied, "I will if those useless
bastards at Home Depot ever bring us the fucking
drywall."

That sounds like my daughter. Repeats everything she hears.

I live in a new neighborhood, where they are still building houses, and my nephew was visiting and came home from checking out the construction sites, stubbed his toe, and said "Ah Fuck, that really hurt." He told us all the nice workmen say that. His dad was less than impressed with us when the kid went home. Thanks for the post.
