Here! Here! We need encouragers...These young men will possibly be great Fathers one day. They'll understand the gratitude in hard work. Thanks Sie.
Clark, that's the writer in me...I may be a little dramatic at times. Good advising..hopefully some of us can pass that on and instill those values where we go. I was trying to send a message to those two young men. I think they saw something in themselves and because of what I taught them about working, they'll come back soon and do an even better work with pride. It was a good thing.
yes... they need encouragers....
Hey Busy Bee!....Are you okay today? ....sending you some love.
@ Brother Clark,
Although I was thinking exactly what you were thinking, I was thinking that in the bed is the only way many Young Fine Black men don't mind putting up a sweat especially from listening to all the lyrics from their songs. Ha!
@ Miisrael,
Don't waste your money on people who won't do the work you pay them to do. Those young bucks need no sympathy, but a lesson in what paying for what you buy means. Shucks let them go into barbering if they don't won't to work outdoors.
Jen...you really think that their just loafers. I try to set an example by hiring them to do some work, but like I said I had to coach them into what to do. Still, they omitted some of the work and I had them go back over it before I paid them. I think they need a good lesson in hard work. They have it too easy sometimes. You proably might have a some truth to some of the young men. I'm being cautious.
"Back-Breaking Sweat!"..maybe I could write a sleezy novel....NAWH!.....Not me.
How young are they Miisrael? I've had the same issue with young guys I've hired in my masonry business. In my experience it takes the guys until after their teen years at least to really be serious workers. The girls seem to develop this character earlier, like in everything else I guess. Oh, and I observed the same thing in some of my sons.
Steve-- They were 19 & 20. They were not what I considered "bad guys." Just needed a little lesson in hard work. Girls do tend to catch on faster sometimes, but I think was some good training for them. I really think I made an impact on them. At least, I tried too!
D...AH! Who knows they may never come back for me to hire them for anything ever again! They were bustin' out in sweats!!....LOL!
Yeah, my son knows I drive him hard too!...If he doesn't get right I call him out to do it until it's finished and done to my liking. ....He's says I too petty!
"Can you imagine that? "

Sometimes all our young black men need is encouragement and someone to guide them in the right direction.
