    Back then, pretty much everyone had. If your dad is a shit shoveler, then you’re also a shit shoveler. Cause unless you find someone else to let you be their apprentice, your parents are the only ones who are gonna pass on any knowledge of a trade. Plus, your dad already got the shovel and the cart, and that’s an investment!
