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 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 paycheck 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 jerks at Home Depot ever
deliver the frigging sheet rock."
