A Construction Story (sure to bring a tear to your eye)

[Keith]

Here's a truly heartwarming story about the bond formed between
a little 5-year-old girl and some construction workers that
makes you believe that we CAN make a difference when we give a
child the gift of our time.


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 spent much of
each day observing the workers.


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 couple of dollars. The little girl took
this home to her mother who said all the appropriate words of
admiration and suggested that they take the two 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
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 last
week with the crew building the house next door to us.


"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 assholes at Home Depot
ever deliver the f*cking sheet rock..."
