If the young man's in charge or won't let the old man take over, the young man's brute strength becomes destructive and inefficient, and the old man's intelligence, out of frustration, grows cruel and inefficient.

Or the young man forgets that he is young and argues with the old man about how to do the work, and that's a sad sight, too.
