>> A LESSON IN HUMAN NATURE - You will love this!>>>> This is a quick story about the bond formed between a little girl and >> a>> group of building workers. It's allegedly true and might help to confirm>> your belief in the goodness of people and that there is hope for the >> human race.>> A young family moved into a house next door to an empty plot. One day,a >> gang of building workers turned up to start building on the plot.>> 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 builders, all with hearts of gold,more >> or less adopted the little girl as a sort of project mascot. They chatted >> with her, let her sit with them while they had tea and lunch breaks, and >> gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important.>> They even gave the child her very own hard hat and gloves, which>> thrilled her immensely.>> At the end of the first week, the smiling builders presented her with a >> pay envelope - containing two pounds in 10p coins. The little girl >> took her 'pay' home to her mother who suggested that they take the >> money to the bank the next day to open a savings account.>> At the bank, the female cashier was tickled pink listening to the>> little girl telling her about her 'work' on the building site and the >> fact she had a 'pay packet'.>> 'You must have worked very hard to earn all this', said the cashier.>> The little girl proudly replied, 'Yes, I worked every day with Steve and >> Wayne and Mike. We're building a big house.'>> 'My goodness gracious,' said the cashier, 'And will you be working on the >> house again next week?'>> The child thought for a moment. Then she said seriously:>> 'I think so. Provided those wa***rs at Jewsons deliver the fu**ing >> bricks.' :lol:
