“It was so nasty”

Oct 22, 2010 | Posted by User Submission |

I was in a cab a few doors down from my building, and while waiting in a small line of traffic I saw these two construction workers checking out the legs of a girl in a skirt and boots. It was so nasty and their creepy butts didn’t hide the fact that they were leering. I saw them smile and laugh to each other after they did their dirty deed, and they said something (I couldn’t make out what).

I took a photo of them, and I also wanted to roll down the window to yell at them, but I was too close to my building and didn’t want them to try to follow me after I got out of the cab. When they’re on break from the job they need to find something better to do than check out innocent women trying to go about their day!
