A kindhearted farmer came upon a young boy who had just lost a load of hay along the side of the road. The farmer suggested that the young boy come home with him for supper before reloading the wagon. "I don't think my father would be too pleased with me if I just left like that!" the young boy replied. However the farmer persisted and finally the young lad agreed. After eating and relaxing for awhile, the farmer took the boy back to where the load of hay lay. The farmer said to the young boy as they arrived back at the scene of the accident, "you are awfully young to be doing such hard work by yourself, where is your father?" "He is under the hay!" the young boy replied. While filling out an application for a job, a man was puzzled by the last question, which read, who to notify in case of an accident?
