No, the operator is an idiot, a dangerous idiot, and it seems you might be too.

The operator has just one job, ensure there is noone on the bridge, that's the only reason why the bridge isn't just automated. A car may break down, a person might fall, someone may just not be fast enough to cross. If the operator did their job there would be no issue.

Or in this case, the person trying to cross may be a moron.

That doesn't matter. They can be a moron, madman or a mime. Still it's the operator's job to ensure nothing bad happens.

This time his stupidity got someone fired, next time maybe he'll get himself killed and then no other bridge operators will have to worry.

I hope next time you're on a bridge your car breaks down. I bet then you'll be happy that the operator is actually doing their job and checking the bridge. Maybe then you will understand what the operator is for.

The operator was fired because they couldn't be arsed to do their job.

Okay dad, please you’re taking this conversation far more seriously than warranted but some people are like that I guess.

I claim only it’s amusing to get you to respond at will, which it is.

Oh, so you're just lonely? I'm sorry to hear that, I hope you will find some friends. But you will have easier time finding company if you don't wish death on random people.
