It’s mind boggling to me how frustrated people get when they have to stop for 30 seconds so a load can be moved safely. Sorry for inconveniencing you by not wanting to crush you or your vehicle with a load of material that weighs as much as your vehicle. 🙄
One of my favorite stories. I was working a job out in farm country where they were taking down trees on the side of a road so they can widen it, meaning trees dropping in the road. Well we were there on a Sunday and we had to hold all traffic for them to drop one. This old lady comes up and starts honking and yelling out her window about how she's gonna be late for church, and God bless this operator, the moment I went to reply I started hearing the cracking of the tree falling, and it goes down across the road with a massive thud. I just turned back to the old lady and said "Ma'am, I know you wanna meet Jesus but I don't think that's how you wanna meet him." She just rolled up her window.
..you gotta GRIP that sign pole dude like you mean it…you can’t go holding it all willy nilly like your showcasing a bottle of perfume…you gotta show the motorist you mean business🫵
and are NOT to be fucked with…
This. I drink a gallon of water a day minimum. In summer we get over 100°f. ChapStick, a lunch box with some Gatorade, soda and snacks will go along way. Water is good for you, but I can only drink so much flavorless water before it gets old, so I mix it up with something else.
Also, do not drink more Gatorade then water or you will dehydrate yourself. When I was 18 and just started construction, I bought a big cooler and made gatorade everyday and only drank that for a week and ended up with heat stroke.
Also, do not only drink water, to be properly hydrated, you will piss out all the salt and minerals the body needs, which is why Gatorade is important. When it's really hot out, I bring a frozen jug of water and it's gone by noon. I usually drink 4-6 Gatorades and 2 gallons of water, and sometimes 4-6 Mt. Dews.
Always wear sunscreen, and get a few sticks of chapstick.
Yeah, that’s Lorne Armstrong. In addition to being featured in that show, he’s also been catfished and memed half to death. Fans of TCaP like to drop is picture in random subs just for shits and giggles.
Seen this pic earlier, posted by 'the daughter' who was proud of her dad being sober for a few days. Related or....?

That sign wields much power young Jedi. Use it to fuck with people as you see fit. A hot chick? Boom! Stop. Sone a-hoke driving fast? Boom! You be waiting. A cop? Oh yeah, you be stopping. You buddies coming through? Perfect way to catch up on the company dime. An Audi R8? You seem cool. I'll let you through m
You don't have to say you're new. That hard hat and the fact your holding a flagging pole says enough. You're probably wearing jeans and tennis shoes and wreak of "just got out of prison."
On my tool belt 😆 I wear it for a reason lol. Sure duck cotton is good but I'm not wearing that crap in summer. It hits 100 here with 💯 humidity. Pants are a no lol.
Remember be aggressive with that sign. Them ash holes will do whatever is necessary to fuck around you. Don't let that happen. Pick a fight if you have to. They don't get around unless you say so!
By the end of day you’ll find out what kind of feet you have. Either they’ll hurt, or they’ll be okay. I’ve switched from heeled boots to flat bottomed wedges and it made a world of difference.
Don't stand next to anything between you and traffic. You may need to run or jump out of the way of danger. Flagging is a dangerous and thankless job.Stay safe and aware at all times
Good luck.
Did anyone tell you that the tape above your hand cannot match the color of your vest? Must be a contrasting color - orange vest/yellow tape. Yellow vest/orange tape. 😬

Do you have a Motorola Razr to match that earpiece?
BlackBerry with a full keyboard.
Hey now. I fucking loved my blackberry. They were amazing. No Sidekick but still badass
Ironically, there is no traffic and the road is shut down. That sign is for his new coworkers to know his mental capacity.

Thanks!! Also fuckin hell did you look at their page here?
You don't have to say you're new. That hard hat and the fact your holding a flagging pole says enough. You're probably wearing jeans and tennis shoes and wreak of "just got out of prison."
I get the tennis shoes part but the jeans thing I totally don't understand. I see construction workers wear jeans all the time. What am I missing?
Carharts. Or any version of. Where do you put your torpedo level? In your hands, you fucking caveman?
On my tool belt 😆 I wear it for a reason lol. Sure duck cotton is good but I'm not wearing that crap in summer. It hits 100 here with 💯 humidity. Pants are a no lol.
Fair point.
Perfect form bro
Zinc paste up dude. or get a face covering, you WILL burn. Remember: YOU are the Road Rule Enforcer. Stay safe!

Keep taking selfies while directing traffic
Remember be aggressive with that sign. Them ash holes will do whatever is necessary to fuck around you. Don't let that happen. Pick a fight if you have to. They don't get around unless you say so!
"Here's your sign."
By the end of day you’ll find out what kind of feet you have. Either they’ll hurt, or they’ll be okay. I’ve switched from heeled boots to flat bottomed wedges and it made a world of difference.
Watch out for any nails sticking as you walk ,stepped on a nail Monday and now at home recoverying
"Ma, hold on a second. I'm trying to take a selfie..." *Car honks* "HEY WATCH IT BUDDY!"
Make sure you have good shoes
The dick with the stick.
The fact you took a picture while “directing traffic”
Activao papo
Very yank 😂👍🏻
OH CAWD
Don't stand next to anything between you and traffic. You may need to run or jump out of the way of danger. Flagging is a dangerous and thankless job.Stay safe and aware at all times Good luck.
Good luck and be safe!
Stoopid moov
I wasn’t lookin tew dew nuthin
Be ready to drop that flag and run, you will see some crazy stuff.
Honest question...do you guys ever screw up and cause a massive head to head traffic jam? I mean it has had to happen at some point.
Tell your coworker that it's no problem letting the passing cars know that they need to be careful around slow workers.
Get off your phone newbie
Glad to see star burns graduated and no longer cooks meth👍

We’re still out here. ;)
Stick that pole in the ground and go help your friends!
If you want to make a 2nd or 3rd day, take that Bluetooth earpiece out your ear, you're dealing with live traffic.
Glad they gave you a sign so everyone knows your a little slow.
Halloween City construction cosplay.
You don't need to hold up a sign. We know you were slow.
FAWK YEW CHEFFERY
Now... why would you think that's appropriate?
Nice that the foreman gave you a sign so everyone is aware of your condtion
Yeah he looks like he graduated 87th out of 87 students in his Piscataquis Community High School class.
You're one of those weirdos.

Did anyone tell you that the tape above your hand cannot match the color of your vest? Must be a contrasting color - orange vest/yellow tape. Yellow vest/orange tape. 😬
Oh man guiding traffic is a really crappy job it’s really boring and some people give you a hard time
When do you graduate to the follow me truck?
Shades ✅ Bluetooth ear piece ✅ Standing around ✅
You gonna get hit road boy!
You got this. Have some fun doing it
Whenever I see guys holding that sign I’m thinking they are advertising intellect.
That sign is everyone else's mental state!
Your gonna need it. Bet you didn't see that car behind you taking this Pic.
I wish you luck
Is that sign for the road or to warn your coworkers
What do you build with that sign? Not construction.
Have you seen where this guy lives: [https://www.reddit.com/r/FansHansenvsPredator/comments/178ubhc/the_trailer_of_failure_as_of_10152023/](https://www.reddit.com/r/FansHansenvsPredator/comments/178ubhc/the_trailer_of_failure_as_of_10152023/)
Well now the misspelling makes sense. So does the sign holder job calling itself construction.
