Amazing road fix in japan after earthquak
Once again the Japanese have shown us why they are simply amazing read the thread below and you be the judge, in my country work like this would take more than a year to complete, let alone that there was a huge natural disaster there. Let's start something where we say how long it will take for work like this to be done in our respective countries or cities, I live in Bahrain and something like this would take over a year to complete

Wow. amazing.
In the USA, it would take 5 days just to schedule everyone for a meeting, and another 3 months to deal with strikes and the Union, and 3 more months for the budget to pass, and 3 more years to actually fix it. Once the road is fixed, we find flaws so we can sue the transporation agency for some money. |

I may not remember this story exactly, but I will try my best to make it sound good. A semi crashed underneath a section of I-75 going south towards Bradenton, FL a few years back. They had to rebuild that portion of bridge due to damage. They actually had 24 hour a day work going on for I believe 3-4 weeks to get it done asap. That was the quickest I have ever seen a road repair in my lifetime. |

I was having dinner with my brother and father on Sunday and my brother was saying it would take 30 years to rebuild Japan to where it was before the earthquake. My father was saying that they would never be able to rebuild and it would never be the same country. I kept think they were both nuts and this proves it.
(I realize this doesn't mean they are back to normal, but they're obviously not wasting any time rebuilding.) |
