\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBubba the redneck promptly answers.\n
\u201cThat there\u2019s white pine, 383 board feet of lumber in \u2018er.\u201d\n
The foreman is impressed! He puts the truck in motion and stops about a mile down the road.\n
He points at another tree through the passenger window and asks the same question.\n
This time, it\u2019s a bigger tree of a different class.\n
Bubba replies. \u201cThat\u2019s a loblolly pine and she\u2019s got about 456 clear board feet.\u201d\n
The foreman is really impressed with the good ol\u2019 boy, he has been quick and got the answers right without using a calculator!\n
One more test. They drive a little further down the road, and the foreman stops again.\n
This time, he points across the road through his driver side window and says. \u201cAnd what about that one?\u201d\n
Before the foreman finishes pointing, the Bubba says.\n
\u201cWhite oak, 242 board feet at best.\u201d\n
The foreman spins the truck around and heads back to the office a little ticked off because he thinks the red neck is smarter than he is.\n
As they near the office, another foreman stops the truck and asks Bubba to step outside.\n
He hands him a piece of chalk and tells him.\n
\u201cSee that tree over there?\u201d \u201cI want you to mark an x on the front of that tree!\u201d\n
The foreman thinks to himself.\n
\u201cIdiot, how would he know which is the front of the tree?\u201d\n
When Bubba reaches the tree, he goes around it in a circle while looking at the ground.\n
He then reaches up and places a big white \u2018X\u2019 on the trunk.\n
He walks back to the foreman and hands him the chalk. \u201cThat there\u2019s the front,\u201d Bubba says.\n
The foreman laughs to himself and asks sarcastically.\n
\u201cHow in the hell do you know that\u2019s the front of the tree?\u201d\n
The good ol\u2019 boy looks down at his feet while rubbing the toe of his left boot cleaning it in the gravel and replies.\n
\u201cCuz somebody took a s**t behind it.\u201d\n
Needless to say, he got the job and started the very same day\u2026\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
When he gets to Franklin, he likes the place so much that he decides to stay.
