Slowpoke Bear
Bear is a slowpoke. He does everything so slowly that, while others have already finished, he hasn’t even started yet. Bear speaks so slowly that it drives people crazy, making them wish they could finish his sentences for him.
That summer, Bear decided to open an ice cream shop. However, by the time he finished making the ice cream, it was already winter with snow falling everywhere, and nobody wanted to buy ice cream.
Bear thought he might as well open a scarf shop since it was cold. But alas, by the time he finished knitting a scarf, the weather had become unbearably hot, and who would wear a scarf then? Since Bear couldn’t open a shop, he decided to look for a job he liked. “Ah, I’ll be a TV host!” he thought. “Now, let’s broadcast the evening news.” What was originally a half-hour news program took him until midnight to finish, and people ended up going to bed.
After several failures, Bear didn’t know what he could do, so he went around asking others for advice. The mischievous Rabbit joked, “That’s easy! You should be a train driver!”
Little did they know, the train Bear drove moved like a snail, slowly crawling forward. The passengers were frantic: “Hey! Speed up, we’re going to be late!” “This isn’t a train, it’s more like an ox cart!”
Bear tried several different jobs in a row, but none worked out, and he felt really sad. Finally, Monkey came up with the smartest idea in the world: “You can be a steamroller driver!” Now, Bear is a very competent steamroller driver. Every day, he drives the huge machine slowly forward, then slowly backward, flattening the road smoothly. Whenever Bear meets someone, he happily says, “I love this job!”
