A couple of small questions
Hi teachers,
"Working for your aunt?" said Joe. "I'm going down to the river. I'm sorry you can't come with me."
Tom put down his brush. "You call this work?" he said.
Is the question correct according to the text?
What did Tom do after what Joe said?
He put down his brush.
Another question:
Is it the same to say 'said Joe' and 'Joe said'?
Thanks in advance

Thank you so much CalifJim. Something was wrong with my sentence, but I didn't know what was it. Now I can see it very clearly.
