Do you get any special privileges for being a flag supervisor, and does that mean you can flag your co-workers?

If something goes wrong, I'm the one who answers for it.  But I also have authority to shut down a work site, citing safety concerns.  I also tell other flaggers what the hell to do and how we're doing it, what hand signals, what order we send traffic in, where we send pedestrians and so forth.

I always wondered how boring this job was.
Like any job, the more you do, the less bored you are.  Single lane alternating traffic and lane closures are the most common ways to control traffic, (for me anyway.)  Which are somewhat entertaining.

What would happen if you got mad at someone, and stabbed them with your flag through their windshield?

Or maybe there's a god who's just completely insane and sends you to Detroit, Michigan in a new body if you ever utter the name "Pat Sajak".

It's not a flag, it's a paddle!

What's the funniest numberplate you've seen?

Do you even pay attention to numberplates?

Where did you dump the bodies?

>I ask siwwy question here<

I don't know about funniest, but the Military doesn't have licence plates for some reason.  When I think about it, I guess that makes sense.

I pay attention to plates when single laning a long distance.  "Last vehicle, Blue honda 841"

Should we call you a paddler, then?  :/

Have you ever tried to direct traffic through interpretive dance?

To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.
