The Gilmore Boys

I call them the Gilmore Boys. Those yellow-clad traffic enforcers who instead of directing traffic in the busy intersections along E. Rodriguez Avenue in New Manila, Quezon City, choose to position themselves several meters past the intersections, many times hiding behind posts or trees.

They're not there to help with traffic. They're there to apprehend as many violators as they can and extort them to death.

And who said a government job did not pay well?
