Not sure if it has been mentioned but, The guy with the roller (bottom left), his roller is still white so 15% of the job is done and he's done nothing. We need to give this guy a bonus for saving supplies, left the shop this morning with 12 rollers and came back eight hours later with 11 rollers. Jim on the other hand left with 12 and used all 12

He's a 'stunt' painter in case the union deems the job a danger to life or health.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned this.... How many office workers does it take to take a picture of city employees painting a bike lane!

I kidd!

I was bored so I scoped it on Google maps to see what it looked like before.

Looks way better today than it did whenever the Google car last rolled around.

In Other News: The Google car driver didn't grow a pair of balls and scope out 7th Ave!!! (Where the trains go if you aren't familiar with downtown)

Not nearly as bad as one guy painting and 10 watching but just as funny.

so the guys smoothing the concrete should jump in before it's poured?

I'm just having some fun dude, relax.

They're probably doing a fine job and it probably takes at least that many people to do it.
The back story of how long it has taken to get this far in the process is probably why I find the image funny.

clearly that is special cement, and a private cement representative is teaching city officials how to properly apply said cement.
