I was putting down vinyl plank in a house in Dayton and the homeowner's kid kept asking me to 'fix the floor's boo-boos'

This little girl, maybe 4 years old named Chloe, followed me around the whole job pointing at every tiny seam or speck. She'd say, 'Mister, that one has an owie, can you kiss it?' I had to explain that my tools were the floor's band-aids. What's the funniest thing a kid has said to you on a job?

Hah, my buddy's kid calls his tool belt a "fix-it holster.

Kids see the world in such a simple, fixable way. It makes you realize how much we adults overcomplicate basic problems. Their logic cuts right through the noise.
