I saw her on line in McDonalds but wasn't fast enough to catch it. I snapped the pic right as she was walking out with her tasty warm coffee.

Still texting, but moved to the south west corner, and using the sign for a little cover.

He was at the corner for a little bit, but needed to take a breather in his car.

I love the enthusiasm, the gum chewing, the foot scraping...

She's not doing nothing, her technique is great.
(Forgive the noise, there's serious construction going on across the street.)

Coming out of the East Coast Pantry.  But apparently it's okay, her supervisor was watching the corner.  (Yes, she got out of the van, in 80 degree weather!)

Facing away from traffic is always a good tactic.

Again, it's the slacker traffic officer's favorite spot.  Hm, it's before 6:00, no one in sight, where could he/she be?


Oh, here she comes!


Oh, good she got a snack.  Her colleague should tell her that East Coast Market is much closer, 7-11 is about four blocks away.

Congress & Wells
Apparently today it takes two people to operate the control box.
 
 Nope, no one in the intersection.

Franklin & Van Bureau
No where in sight and the control box is wide open, where could he/she be?

Van Buren & Wacker
Crossword? Homework? Job application?

Harrison & Wells
La, le, la, la...

I don't know what it is about this corner, is it a kind of Siberia that none of the supervisors check?
I give this officer credit, she's the only one who went back to work when she saw me taking pictures.

This one is borderline, but I'm always suspicious when they aren't even standing in the street.

Harrison & Wells
It's possible she's getting off shift, but the day before there was someone at this corner until at least 6:30.

Harrison & Wells 5:59pm
In the East Coast Pantry, a half a block from the corner.


6:00 pm
Back to work?

6:04 pm
Nope, back in the Pantry, apparently she forgot something.

6:09 pm
Back at her post, hard at work.

Congress & Wells
An officer working in the rain, was I lied to? Is it not policy that rain makes things too dangerous so they have to stay out of the street?
