Thats what I thought too. If you watch closely though, it looks like there is a co-worker already on the structure. The guy in the bucket gets smacked down to the pavement, just missing the truck.
Sure why not....

Let me translate what the reporter was saying, "Look at this damn fool out here working in the middle of the highway during the early morning commute.  This fuck up held me up as I was trying to get to work.  I almost spilled my morning vodka while trying to put on my make up, read the headlines in today's paper and check if I had any hits on YouTube while I was driving in.  Wait for it, wait for it, BAM!  Holy shit!  Yeah, serves you right for trying to do your fucking job, asshole!  Next time, call for traffic control, or stay the fuck out of my way!" :rock:

Nice Steel head, yeah that about sums up most of the drivers I see up here.  How dare we even inconvenience them by making them slow just even a little bit to work on something.
