Rather than do it properly when they closed the road last week, we can just close it agin next year and pay twice for a job that could have just been done properly the first time it will have subsided into place by then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trmpton Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 The Americans have got the DOI well sussed ”Painter kind of goofed. They should have saved even more money and NOT painted the outer most oval shown. Then, it would be obvious to the eye, that the two inner circles are the "no-drive" zone and the outer larger area is the right-of-way. But then that would require someone above an eight grade level in education to understand such principles. They are still missing a "stop-line" on one entrance.” ”if it's anything like New Jersey, some politicians retarded cousin got a $Million contract to do traffic engineering for the first time....” ”This is what happens when you hire a guy who just got his engineering degree from a online college course.” 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chief Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 i'm assuming that right now, the DOI are sat in one of their meetings all slapping themselves on the back for a job well done, all the while not realising that they all look like utter fucktards not only for the time its taken to do the job but then come up with this ridiculous eyesore. Again Tynwald, the MHK's, the CS and their departments making the Island a laughing stock. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beelzebub3 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Just when you think things within the DOI cannot get any worse, this fucking eyesore pop's up and lo and behold Dim Baker state's his usual rhetoric "you will get used to it" will somebody please get rid of this useless clown before we are the laughing stock of the western world, enough is enough he has to go along with the other 3 head honcho's in the DOI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
