Question
Read the text up to line 90. What do you think the hitchhiker's job is? Then read the story to the end and check your answer.
Answer
Based on the text, it's not explicitly mentioned what the hitchhiker's job is. The hitchhiker initially claims to be an "odd carrier" (likely a typo for "hod carrier"), which is a person who carries cement for a bricklayer. However, the narrator later questions the hitchhiker's statement and points out the inconsistency between claiming to be an unemployed hod carrier and being involved in a highly skilled trade. The hitchhiker doesn't provide a clear answer, leaving the question of his actual occupation unanswered in the provided text.
