5 year old's first job
>
> Here's a truly heartwarming story about the bond formed
> between a little 5-year-old girl and some construction workers that will
> make you believe that we all can make a difference when we give a child
> the gift of our time.
>
> A young family moved into a house, next 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 ten dollars. The little girl took this home to
> her mother who suggested that she take her ten dollars "pay" she'd
> received to the bank the next day to start a savings account.
>
> When the girl and her mom 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 a real construction crew building the new house next
> door to us."
>
> "Oh 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 fuckin' sheet rock..."
>
> Brings a tear to the eye - doesn't it?
