Truly a heart-warming story about the bond formed between a little girl and
some construction workers.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 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 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
construction 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 *%^ idiots at Bunnings ever
bring us the bloody gyprock.”[weird]REDWING
