    I've been in rest areas when DOT officers came in and started banging on truck doors, waking drivers up to do inspections. We would think, they wouldn't be so ignorant, but they are and I've witnessed this happen.

    In another transportation field I worked in, inspectors and managers were mostly failures at the actual work. After a person wrecked enough equipment they were promoted to where the only thing they could damage was a computer. And of course the entire business, incidentally.

    At roll call the next morning, while the other DOT officers stood at attention, he was presented with a citation for preventing mass casualties due to his diligence in noticing you had some room left in your windshield wash fluid reservoir.
