They were out there today in front of the Fire station.
Don't get me started on Construction Companies being "forced" to use Police officers for Flagging Duty.
It is so sad that these police can make more money flagging traffic off-duty then they can working their normal police detail.
In Washington State, you could become a certified flagger in under 6 weeks and get paid $15.00 an hour... and that was your "job" a flagger.
Using Police officers for this type of work is another rip off to us tax payers.
"Directing traffic" LMAO... Stop and Go... I sure hope a cop would be able to know how to use a stop sign.
Hire some kids out of school and let the police do "police" work.
Thanks for the explanation of the night time work...
But if you think about it... it also rains in the day time.
To Answer Rob's Question... well the timeline is in place 2012 (I believe)... but knowing how Hawaii works, they won't stick to that timeline.
