yeah I know you did not ask!
I want to see the job description at MoDOT for this position, or at least the want ad for the job,
I was headed to St. Charles, driving north on MO 141. I passed one then a second of these those big yellow MoDOT trucks sporting the brightly lighted signs declaring “MEN WORKING AHEAD”. Both were driving extremely slow as there was a work party afoot moving very slowly too. Both were equipped with big, striped crash barriers at the rear of the trucks. I sometimes see 3 or 4 of these vehicles stacked up for a moving work zone.
Wanted: Must have CDL. Need a person capable of driving extremely slow. Potential for accidents is higher than average. Harried, cell-phone-using commuters might miss bright yellow truck with brightly lighted sign warning of danger. No worries, trucks are equipped with state of the art crash barriers, and Health and Life Insurance will be available at reasonable cost to you.
