[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 3094414, member: 109862"] some good advise I got when I was 16 working a summer job….there was this big rock we needed to get out of the path, a small boulder really, and the men were gonna get a wheelbarrow and we were gonna lift it together and make it an easy task. But being 16 with something to prove, I caveman lifted the thing myself while they were getting the wheelbarrow and walked it to its intended destination. Feeling smug and proud of myself. The older guy, grumpy old fella (to me) in his late 60s with a heart of gold buried under all that grumpiness looks at me and says “Junior!” (He was always calling me that) “What?” “You have a choice to make in life. You can be smart or you can be tough, because if you refuse to be smart you better be tough cuz life’s gonna hurt, and what you just did was stupid”. I’ve taken the words to heart haha, it’s good advice. [/QUOTE]
