They were making the low barriers that prevent cars from pulling too far forward, and were building the wooden forms for the concrete to be poured into. The men used a measuring tape and nudged the sides of the forms a centimeter this way, that way. They didn't want any concrete barrier to be a centimeter off-spec. I also saw workers doing hard manual labor in very hot sun for hours on end. No lack of work ethic there!Marc Hoffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09966660011086658043noreply@blogger.com
