Yes - that's right!
I now have a new job - traffic controller.
It means standing on a road with a sign in my hands, surrounded by cones on the road to indicate that you don't go that way.
But, unfortunately, people turn their brains off... and for some strange reason think that, even though there are a couple of clearly marked lanes that we've created with those brightly coloured cones, and even though I'm standing in the middle of a road - behind me being some form of construction... and a big truck taking up half the damn road... and the fact that I'm waving which direction to go... people will still try to drive straight at me thinking that's where they should be going.
They've even managed to travel down 1 lane, and get halfway down, and decide to swing into the other lane (ie - into oncoming traffic).
Trust me, this last week I've been working on the roads has just dumbfounded me as to how stupid people can actually be!!!
