During manual handling training a strong
young man at the construction site was bragging that he
could out do anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special
case of making fun of the site safety team.
After several minutes, the manual handling instructor had
had enough.
''Why don't you put your money where your mouth is,'' he
said. "I will bet a week's wages that I can move something
in a wheelbarrow over to that site hut that you won't be
able to wheel back.''
''You're on, old man,'' the braggart replied. ''Let's see
what you got.''
The manual handling instructor reached out and grabbed the
wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man,
he said, ''All right. Get in.''
