There’s a large government building near my office. Today I walked past and found workers sprucing the place up with some deep-beige-colored paint all over the four-story edifice. Much to my surprise (?), however when I walked to the front of the building, which had already been painted, I saw another worker filling in cracks along the facade with a cream-colored substance. So, the newly painted building is riddled with crack-shaped, off-colored accents. Which begs the question: Why didn’t they fill in the cracks before starting to paint?
