To the construction crew re-curbing and re-surfacing Akerley boulevard all goddam summer and now fall… try to look more relaxed while working, you can’t! Sick of the time this is taking given we all get to witness you working with a tims in one hand and a smoke going… meanwhile you are breaking up curbing that was just installed?? I hope for the sake of the HRM tax payers that you do not get extra cash for how long you keep milking this… November is coming and I wouldn’t be surprised if the road sees a snoplow before a paver! —Burnt Sider

…. they’re hourly.
That overtime isn’t going to make itself.
