I wonder how he paid for his gold teeth. When he was "working"

[sittingindetroit]

They never told me I have to work when I am supposed to be working??? I can either do personal errands or just sit around???

[pah]

Crazy as it may seem, he may get his job back if the city didn't follow protocol prior to terminating him

[troquero]

This it’s going on for a long time in all cities in the United States

[chasestokely]

He feels that he put in his work already through the years, so he can slack off

[seanmurphy]

Keep it movin pal!!!
Lots of other people need that job and they wont be ripping us tax payers offf. What ypu did is stealing. If you dont know that then go ask yp moma if it is

[dearborn]

Lying through his bullshit teeth.. city should release all of them, even if it's one count. Dig deeper, keep investigating. #taxpayersSTILLpaying

[relikvija]

100.000$ over 10 years is a lot but not that crazy if he actually did the work.

But this dude was trying hard not to work, its managment who should be (also) blamed for hiring a rat like this.

They got a guy that sells Jamaican food 😂😂😂😂

[gregmyhometownhostetter]

Yep that's what they do get caught then roll on whom ever they can, somethings never change !!

[petehammond]

Looks like Tampa needs a little house cleaning, Seattle just as bad,

[vwlover]

Such an easy job, but yet he still abuses it!

[tmilesffl]

I was never told I couldn't get in the truck and ride around. Really!!!

[paulgeyer]

Wah Wah I got caught. So like a rat fink I am gonna turn in all my buddies.

[lennytompkins]

0:39 - 21 hours a day? This man is a dynamo of productivity! He performs the work of three men! :-D

[cmndrkool]

Why does there have to be a union job for a guy who sets traffic cones up for events?

[stevebano]

SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS THERE'S A SIX FIGURE JOB OPENING SOMEWHERE...?

[rikkir]

And that is union workers for you. Maybe he can cough up the gold teeth before his next visit to the welfare office!

[robertbowman]

The gang member throwing up his gang sign, whom works for another gang got what he deserved. "I'm saying"

[glenncarlson]

When they say they work hard, don’t believe them
