This is a kid that when I walked in the door seeing him back, my first question was "What has XXX fucked up so far?"
You mean, he's been verbed.... As in, his name has become a verb, an example of proper usage being, "wow, you really XXXed that up." The airport I work at can be a pretty small place; you get verbed at a couple of shops, and word gets around. Good luck ever getting a job on the field again.

I don't understand.
Seen that a few times myself. Hell, last summer, we had to teach a kid how to run a pick. My brain hurts at it. It's all stuff Dad taught me before I was 10.

Run a pick? Like a pick axe or...?

This is a pickaxe. THIS is a mattock. One is for hard shit; one is for softer shit. THERE is a ditch line to be dug from point A to point B. Use either tool to chop out the material between A and B to the depth I specify. Trust me; thru experimentation you will quickly learn the difference in utility between a pick and a mattock. You will also learn about roots and rocks.
