Do Road Crew Sign Guys Have Beef With Each Other?

Image
I was passing through a construction area on Barker's Island in Superior, WI earlier this week and noticed that the Road Crew Sign Guy at the far end of the Construction Zone didn't really seem to be paying attention to the Road Crew Sign Guy at MY end of the Construction Zone. I think that he was fiddling with his phone, perhaps with a music app and was, therefore, briefly distracted.  It made me wonder if these distractions were a regular thing. It made me empathize with the Road Crew Sign Guy at MY end of the Construction Zone.  I wondered if he got more and more frustrated as the day wore on. I mean, here he is, coming to work, alert, focused, and determined to protect the lives and ensure the safety of his fellow Road Crew Construction Guys - Jackhammer Guy, the Concrete-Smoothing Guys, Cement Truck Guy, Road Grader Guy, and even the Slacktastic Road Crew Sign Guy who's too busy playing on his phone to pay attention to his JOB! AGAIN!
