Don’t take it personally, DOT Guy! The Caption Contest reduces you from a thinking, feeling human being to a symbol of the BUREAUCRACY. It is cruel and unfair and sort of fun too.

Multitasking for job security! I don’t fix traffic. I AM traffic! NO TRAFFIC = NO JOB. I’m in no hurry to solve any problems. > Between the tailpipe on this DOT P.O.S. and 20 cigarettes a day, I’m also doing my part to pollute the air.

Hey I think that’s the DOT guy that shows up at the CB 8 transportation meetings. Mostly stays quiet unless they have an annoucement about how they are valiently making every effort to move as many cars as fast as possible through our neighborhood to prevent them from honking or actually stopping and contributing to the local economy.

Love the photo!
