Once upon a time, a very strong plumber went to a timber dealer to find a job and got a job. The reward is quite good and the work conditions are good. Therefore, the logging engineer is determined to do his best.

His boss gave him an ax and told him where he was cutting trees.

On the first day, the woodcutter brought 18 trees back. "Congratulations ." The boss said, "Let's do it !"

He was inspired by the boss's words. He worked harder the next day, but he only brought back 15 trees. On the third day, he redouble his efforts, but only brought back 10 trees. Day after day, he brought fewer and fewer trees.

"I must be getting weaker and weaker ." A hacker thinks about it. He apologized to the boss and told him that he didn't understand what happened. "When was the last time you used an ax ?" Ask the boss. "Grinding an ax? I don't have time to sharpen my ax. I have been busy cutting trees ......"
