A few months ago a friend of ours got a new mower and offered us their old riding mower. It needed a little TLC and they knew that was right up Mr. OverKill’s alley. So, we picked it up and he got it running. However, he didn’t let Bubba use it right away. Mr. OverKill used it to mow another property that we have and, on the rare occasion that he needed to mow at the house, he would use it there too.
But then, this weekend Mr. OK thought Bubba was ready to try out the riding mower. He wanted to make sure he had used the push mower enough to know what hard work is like. He also wanted to see some positive changes in Bubba’s attitude toward work.
Let me just say that Bubba was much more concerned about making sure he got every piece of grass mowed perfectly…
He couldn’t stop smiling….
except when he had to concentrate on shifting….
Hey, sometime shifting is harder than it looks.
