I worked for MoDOT for 33 yr. Either in contract administration or maintenance. As a Resident Engineer, I was in charge of 20-30 inspectors who made sure the jobs were built according to plan and spec. I had hundreds of millions dollars worth of projects in St. Louis City, County, and Jefferson Co. As District Maintenance Engineer, I managed 350-60 employees in 26 subunits (maint barns)in 13 counties in South Central Mo. The personnel problems were quite bad sometimes. I was on call 24/7 365.
