Take the blame, on two, ready...break

The recent public outcry about the $50,000 temporary exit has once again proven that the DOT is the offensive lineman on the football team of today’s society. The celebrities play quarterback, wide receiver, and running back; getting far more credit than deserved. The local police play linebacker, putting people in there place and letting them know about it. The government as a whole plays the coordinators, quietly orchestrating everything in attempt to just not get blamed. But the DOT does all that things they are expected to do, only being noted when they make an error in the publics eye; no credit, all blame. I look forward to my life as a civil engineer, eventually maybe with the DOT, receiving no credit when I do all the right things, and getting harassed if I fail at one thing.
