When you got 12 guys standing around an open pit in the middle of the street smoking cigarettes, and one poor guy with a shovel doing all the work.
Q: hey, see those douche bags over there crowded around that hole in the middle of the street?

A: yea, i only see one dude doing all the work, must be PennDOT.

PennDOT Manager: alrightly men, we are heading over to route 222 to make some more pot holes, lets see... we got 11 supervisors and.... one newbie with a shovel, lets roll. Oh, don't forget to grab a few 55 MPH signs to post on the way so we can piss off as many interstate drivers as possible

An organization known primarily for placing strange orange barrels by the side of the road for no ostensible reason. Recently changed its name to PENNDOT (same acronym, only all of the letters are now capitalized), claiming that "In addition to being more contemporary, the capitalization projects a corporate attitude as opposed to a government entity -- reflective of the new PENNDOT customers appreciate."
PENNDOT is a funny name.

I live in Pennsylvania. I lived here all my life. For the life of me, I can't figure out what PennDOT does! I see the road crews out all the time, but they don't fix anything... all they do is lean on their shovels and shoot the shit!
"What do you do for PennDOT?"

"On May 1 I take the big orange barrels out of sotrage & line 'em up on the roads. On November 1 I collect the big orange barrels and put 'em back in storage. Other than that, I collect my paycheck every week!"
