    Not endorsing child labor, but this would have been a great job for a whole bunch of kids. Just let out a few classes early, pull up in the school buses and let 50 of them compete to see who picks up the most.

      Funny enough I was just reading a fantasy story with a mix of races building a city together.

      Dryads talked to trees to relocate spirits.
      Beavermen cut down all the trees with ease since spirits helped.
      Dwarves got all the trees and made lumber / dwellings.
      And the seemingly useless goblins were clearing the fields of leftovers/rocks so they had a prestine place to build dwellings.

      So I pictured a horde of goblins cleaning up all the dimes at the headline.
      Switching that over to children with the same energy and sounds fit hilariously.
