The “Men Working” sign is a standard fixture at construction sites, warning passersby that they should be on guard due to potentially dangerous work. That doesn’t seem controversial, but an Ohio college official has declared it anti-women.
At Ohio’s Sinclair Community College, Elizabeth Verzi, the school’s Manager of Construction and Planning, ordered the crew to remove a Men Working sign that she called "sexist."
The incident occurred the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, as an ALL-MALE construction crew from the company JCrane was working in an area of Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio. The crew was told to immediately cease all work until the "sexist sign" was removed. Crew foreman Matt Peters initially thought the request was a joke, and the work continued. Sinclair employee Jim Fauzy appeared on site to say that the men needed to stop immediately until the Men Working sign was gone.
Breitbart News spoke to foreman Matt Peters, who confirmed that Liz Verzi told him in a meeting that the sign was sexist and should be replaced with a "Crew Working" sign. Peters quoted Ms. Verzi as saying, “That sign is sexist and it’s not up for discussion.”

Liz Verzi is a rabid moron and that’s not up for discussion.
I would say that this sort of thing is surprising, but it really isn’t. That woman needs to slow down and take a few deep breaths.
Cafeteria ordered to replace menu . . . .
I would put up a sign that says : “ workmen ahead on a gender confused worksite”
Small print “ Don’t confuse the illiterates ahead , just grin an bear it “
On Red Eye last night, it was suggested the sign should read “Man Working”. Although the comment was to ridicule the bystanding workers, it’s a perfect counter strike to the men-hating beotches out there.
Freedom of Speech is much different from some global obligation to listen to the blather of others.
Ignore the “college official”, and the ACLU, and most other liberals.
That should really tweak Ohio's Sinclair Community College's Elizabeth Verzi, Manager of Construction and Planning.
Would everyone assume that this nitwit had the authority to shut down a construction site?????
Finally, something more significant than the Benghazi terrorist attack. I was getting tired hearing about that. Ugh.
The ^$#$**n liberal cancer rages on.
I just don’t know, any longer, what to say except that mindless bitches like this need to be taken out......read into that what you will.
This idiocy....and paying for it.....has to stop.
Good God.
Sign should say :
“Men working ahead
sidewalk superintendant females
are supervising”
the world is insane.....
what is it going to take to get us back to being civilized?....
Or this....Men working, but we do not know what Sandra Fluke is doing. Or, maybe we do.
How about: “Men Working and a Woman in an orange vest holding a Stop Sign ahead.” That’s all I have ever seen.
Someone needs to start putting a bullet in the ass of any so-called official, college or otherwise, who is so uselessly egalitarian that they can create such chaos and pandemonium out of thin air.
Just sent emails to this college’s President...and Ms. Verzi....that will singe their hair. Guaranteed. Marks will be left. Scars.
She should get the bill for the time lost and the sign. And then she should get fired. The problem isn’t this absurd woman; it’s the people who allow her to be absurd with their time and money.
