What r these guys doing
Yesterday night I was walking through the center of the old city arround 1700.
At one intersection (where Q-Tel is) I had to wait for a couple of minutes...
There I saw a guy on the sidewalk, well hidden behind bushes with a clipboard lookoing
a the passing by traffic an taking notes.
As I started to look arround I noticed that there were several guys doing the same thing...
Some more hidden, some less.
The interesting bit is, that they were dressed in the usual blue suits... but at least the guy that was nearest me sure didnt fit the looks of a blue suit.
What are these guys doing ?
I could not help and take a pic of them while driving by the intersection a while later...

"Drink Beer Save Water"
LOL... how are you today. and where is frogy... he should have come out of his hmmmmmm.. Chocos are not gonna give him a reason to drive in the opposite direction or on footpath.

"Maybe they need to give these guys an umbrella and a water bottle for accurate figures to come or what we will see is whimsically planned future Doha."
OUR FROG CAN ARRANGE THAT as he did with chocolates to a Policeman previously :)
All men are not homeless, but some men are home less than others.A stupid man's report of what a clever man says is never accurate because he unconsciously translates what he hears into something he can understand.Government's view on this economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidise it.
The world is full of willing people; some willing to work, the rest willing to let them. In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.
I saw a white elderly couple doing this the other day at Burger King Roundabout.
They can estimate traffic flow per hour so when they install traffic lights they have an Idea of how to program them to achieve optimum traffic flow.
ok, next time I see them I will ask what they are doing... should have done that yesterday.
Actually I saw the same near Villagio this morning he was sitting on a stone up there in the middle of the road and I did think it is a funny place to sit and wait and because it would be difficult to pick him up as he was facing the wrong side. Hmm interesting.
LOL...Knoxcollege...Staring and may be taking notes on Vital Statistics....

Staring?
Great observation!
They better not be taking car number plates down for traffic offences. LOL.
Don't think they're CID's in civil dress.

they tried it on several roundabouts b4 and they were sitting in the middle with clipboard and pen in hand noting down number of vehicles passing each green signal.

maybe skdkak was right..
but are they suppose to be in uniform?
Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.
ok... as long as they don't write plate numbers for not wearing seat belt or using mobile phones etc.
Not that I would do any of the above :-)
something to do with statistics... future traffic control.
Dont you know old city will become a new one soon. lot of infrastructural development and sure need to know the traffic congestion etc etc
