I've seen countless road work sights that haven't even been sealed yet where potholes are popping up, even when the public isn't allowed to drive on it.

I've seen first hand a council project that blew the budget massively due to the incompetence of consultants they paid to do their job and there be absolutely no re-course for those people and a massive cost to the rate payer.

Like everything we plebs pay through the nose for everything, get a crap product or service, and have to be thankful for the experience.
