You can see on the left where they tried then realized it was way too big of a task. I probably would have tried a little harder to get some white in the right spot, but definitely not perfectly. Not even close. I ain't mad

Lmao you’re 100% right that’s funny. I’d do the same thing

[-] yiliu@informis.land 6 points 11 months ago

I mean we don't really know how hard they did try. Maybe they finished both those lines and finally said fuck it.

[-] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 27 points 11 months ago

Paid by the job. If they were paid by the hour it would be spotless.

“Ain't nobody got time for that!”

What happens when the company owner's son in law "runs the job, because how hard can it be"

[-] Djeikup@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago

This just makes sense. They most likely did a repair or something underneath the bricks. To do this they took them all out and put them in a big pile, did the work and then started to put them back.

Now are you going to just put the bricks back quick and efficiently since all the bricks are the same, or are you going to inspect nearly every single brick with a line to ensure you are placing the correct brick in place?

I know what I would do.

Dude I love puzzles and would love to drag solving that one out as long as possible bc money. But you know the supervisor is telling them to hurry up and ignore the lines so his boss can make some more money.

[-] kernelle@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Only mildly infuriating

[-] favrion@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I would chastise the supervisor and threaten to call him every day until it gets fixed.

Block pavers, technically

I actually quite like the way that looks, but I get that since the lines have an actual purpose, it should probably have been put back the proper way.

[-] kernelle@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

You can see the tiles are uneven ground there as well, I will update if they eventually fix the road and put it back properly

[-] NielsBohron@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

My guess is that they either flip the painted bricks over or sand the existing paint off and then either way they can just repaint

[-] BVSS@feddit.uk 5 points 11 months ago

Road markings are just free form jazz

[-] ohlaph@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

That's amazing, actually.

[-] ultratiem@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I would 100% fix that

[-] Hikermick@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

"It's lunch time, fuck it"

[-] LillianVS@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I don't think a person was supposed to be there, but it looks like a road marking man has just been thanos snapped

[-] Osea_3@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Why did they take them out to begin with?

[-] ristedeloegne@feddit.dk 8 points 11 months ago

It’s a feature, not a bug. You can take them out to work on underground infrastructure, or even it out if there’s a slump, and replace the same materials, instead of having to jackhammer shit up and pour new concrete/asphalt.

[-] moitoi@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

It's a bus stop and I guess they had to readjust them after some time due to the weight of the busses.

[-] MyFriendGodzilla@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I agree kinda infuriating, they coulda just flipped them if they cared about neatness.

[-] ShadedCosmos@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

My brain ow ow ow

[-] TokyoMonsterTrucker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 11 months ago

You would hate living in Japan. Road crews don't rebrick, they just fill it with blacktop and it looks like dogshit.
