Yes, it's unfortunate they had some radiation exposure. But seriously, eight people to remove an exit sign?

Can't really tell from the article if 8 people were sent to remove the sign or 8 people were sent to do work to an area which included taking down the sign.

Seems pretty clear. 8 for the sign. 10 others were in the area doing other work

I know nothing of the work assignment these men were given, the size of the sign they were removing or what other tasks they were also performing that day, but...

/outrage!

True but I now know the answer to the age-old question of how many gov't workers it takes to change a light bulb. Or something like that.

Road work is incredible. How many times do we see one guy in the ditch digging and 4 guys watching?
