So just how many city employees does it take to look at a hole?

Where can I get a job like this?

They stood there for nearly an hour while I drank my coffee. In the end they all just drove off in different city owned vehicles.

I for one will never put the word "worker" after any government employees name.

Gosh!

I can not imagine how long it would have taken them if it was another kind of a hole!

"They stood there for nearly an hour while I drank my coffee."

I was sitting and trying to do my best to do absolutely nothing. Very frustrating week.

Seven is a lot. Around here, it takes at least three though. Of course, ours have to bring shovels to lean on, because we don't have those cool railings which seem tailor-made for hole watching.

I suspect there's another one (or more) off-camera - I don't see the guy with the clipboard in the shot.
