Summary

This quote playfully highlights the contrast between two types of work. The act of throwing a ball, which is often associated with sports and physical activity, is seen as a productive task that brings a reward or incentive.

The quote emphasizes the speaker's contentment with their job involving physical activity, implying that it is more honest and lucrative compared to other forms of work.
