Some people really have bad luck. Joe is one of them. Everything he wants to do turns out
to be a flop (unsuccessful). For example, if he finds a pair of sneakers (athletic shoes) he
really likes, the shop won’t have them in his size or if he chooses the shortest line in a
supermarket, the others will always move faster.
Can you imagine what will happen to poor Joe in these situations? Write your answers in the
space provided.
