Today, while working for the public works department, I spent 10 hours in the rain repairing potholes on a dirt road. When I was almost finished, some ass-rag in a jacked-up redneck douche-mobile flew up the road, spinning his tires and flinging the stone out of nearly all the holes I had just filled. FML
kdragonrose tells us more.
Op here. Yeah, I tried to tell them the road needs regraded, but a) I'm female and b) I'm just a laborer so no one bothers to listen to me. There are several elderly people on that particular road who have nothing to do but complain about the holes so that's why they sent me out. It still doesn't make it right for the rednecks to fly up the road and fling all the stone out. If I hadn't been ducking flying rocks, I would've gotten his license plate number and called the cops for distruction of public property. He put several dents in the 5500 Ram I was driving too.

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Your Public Works Dept is stupid. If the road is full of potholes the road needs to be regraded. They sent you out there for nothing. Love your description of the redneck though.

Jacked up redneck douche-mobile is my new favorite term to define pickup trucks with douchey drivers.

No matter where we are in the world... there's always some douchebag that ***** things up for us. For your sake OP, i hope, from the bottom of my large intestine, that he gets intense diarrhea for a whole month with shitty toilet paper to wipe.

How do you know it was a redneck? Maybe it was a doctor with too much money that threw together a lifted truck and he only goes out to cause trouble wearing a redneck mask to burn off steam? (Yeah. It was a red neck)

That type of thing is what causes people to put 2x4's across the road full of nails to take out the tires of said redneck douchebags...lol

We public works employees have a million of em. The jacked-up redneck douche-mobIles are bad, but I REALLY hate the Paul Walker-wannabe wack-off wagons. I live in rural Pennsylvania. People here think a Dodge Neon or a Chevy Cavalier with whale-tail spoilers and "fart cannon" mufflers are "street racers." They bitch every time we do a tar-and-chip job because it chips their 50-buck paint jobs.

...you're not required to close down the road when you're performing repairs?

I had "work area ahead" signs posted on both sides of the work zone. We don't need to close the road just to fill pot holes, especially in a rural area. We just need work area signs up.

Hope you got the license plate number! Maybe this was the redneck's way of telling you to "git 'er done!" with fixing the potholes. :D

Do you not close a portion of the road while working or put up caution signs?
