Classic time theft/tar theft combo.
Comment on How come there is enough asphalt for speed bumps, but not enough to fill potholes ?

When pot holes were regularly filed, workers would pour gas on the tar to make sure they could eat and have a job next week.

It was in certain pot hole fillers interest to ensure the pot hole continued to need to be filled so they could continue to fill holes, so despite filling a hole once the gas ensured they’d have to come back again and redo the job and get paid multiple times for the same hole.
