LOL.....It is never true. I have invited people who I see make that
claim to come work as a laborer (that is a job description BTW, not a
class distinction) for a day or a week or a month.
I would just love to see one of these guys(or gals) hauling a
wheelbarrow of concrete all day long. They will soon find that all
that work in the gym didn't mean a damn thing in *the real world*.
I work with my hands and tools all day, but I wouldn't want to do a
laborers job.

Of course, they are using a different definition for "work", but that
is just disingenuity on their part.

As for gumption, it takes gumption to get up and go to work when your
body still aches from the day before.

It is a product of all that pollution provided by Bush when he was
Governor.
