The manager might conclude everyone should be laying bricks at this rate and "bust the rate", or lower the pay per brick laid. This is done to try and force the workers to lay the bricks faster. The brick layers will try harder to lay the bricks if they want to make up for their previous slow pace. This type of behavior was typical for managers who received more efficient workers.
