Any engineer worth his salt isnt working for ALDOT starting at $40k to hopefully be able to one day pull in $85k before they retire unless they just really enjoy the benefits its almost impossible to fire a State employee (probably why most are still there) and with all the paid holidays, sick, and vacation time its a perfect job for the mediocre. Im sure there are some good ones there but I highly suspect they are outnumbered on a massive scale. The biggest problem is that they are micromanaged from the very top. Several district still have the district engineer reviewing and approving (or disapproving) every detail on every plan sheet while dozens of fairly qualified engineers do nothing. Then, there is only his way and the wrong way. Almost every other dept in the country seeks out advice from the construction industry and "teams" with the other departments, engineering an design firms and the travelling public. The department is a communist dictatorship.
not sure what the best way to handle them is but they shouldnt be on tv and gettn married and raisin kids
