The Riveter

The Riveter is a 1940 American Donald Duck short film directed by Dick Lundy and produced by Walt Disney.[1] In the short film, Donald lands a job working high steel as a riveter for construction foreman Pete.
== Plot[edit] ==
After a rough off-screen physical confrontation, a construction worker is aggressively thrown off a jobsite. The foreman, Pete, posts a sign reading "Riveter Wanted". Donald sees the sign and indicates his interest in the job to Pete, who is skeptical due to Donald's comparatively small stature. Donald however insists he can perform the job, so Pete hires him and immediately sends him to work on the top floor. Donald gets off to a rough start due to being disoriented and terrified by the height, and then by not knowing how to work the rivet gun. Unable to physically control the rivet gun, Donald is dragged by it along the jobsite.
Pete decides to take his lunch break and orders Donald to serve him, but the loud noise from the other rivet guns distracts Donald to the point of completely ruining Pete's lunch. An enraged Pete chases Donald throughout the high floors of the jobsite. Donald outmaneuvers Pete, causing Pete to fall off the side of the building and into a tub of quick drying plaster. The plaster encases Pete into a fountain statue, causing Donald to laugh uproariously.
