I might have some advice...that is if you would kindly explain what the fuck a flagger is. It sounds like a derogatory remark of some sort.

LMFAO..u guys are dumb..hahaha..jkj

a flagger is one of those people that works on the side of the road at construction sites, say for highway or road construction/repairs, and they hold the stop/slow down signs and stuff like that...they control traffic flow;) and they make damn good money too for what they do..here they start off around $18/hr cdn

A lot of them make GOOD money around here for just standing there with a flag. Gotta watch out for the crazy drivers though :no:

usually it starts off around 8 or 9 dollars (u.s.) and depending on your experience you can make a ton more, and its mostly in the spring,summer, and a little into the fall. but yeah just gotta watch out for crazy drivers and crap, i might try it for this summer i Have to keep busy right now.

Yah Anna that sounds cool. Good luck with all of that!!! I never realized you had to have a certificate for that. I thought that's what you meant by a flagger...but I was thrown off by the certificate thing. I began doubting myself:o
