A strong, young man at a construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of one of the older workmen, Maurice. After several minutes, Maurice had enough.
"Why don't you put your money where your mouth is?" he said. "I'll bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that outbuilding that you won't be able to wheel back."
"You're on, old man," the braggart replied. "It's a bet! Let's see what you got."
Maurice reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man, he said, "All right. Get in!"
