A strong young man at the construction site was bragging that hw could outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of Morris, one of the older workers.
After several minutes, Morris 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 bring back!”.
“You’re on!” replied the braggart. “It’s a bet.”.
Morris Reached out and grabbed the wheel barrow by the handles. Then nodding to the young man he said, “all right. Get in!”
