Answer:

Hyperbole, Metaphor & Personification.

-

Why?

1 ) It's exaggerating the fact that feet is "working"/"served" for shovels

2) The metaphor comparing the feet as dirty by saying it served for "shovels", chastising the fact it's a metaphor.

3) Personification, it provides human factor for mere feet and shovels.
