I usually see those rats when there are workers crossing the picket line while unions are on strike.
There was a rat at a worksite out on the Waltham/Lexington line on Tuesday morning. They have been having some kind of labor action for a while.
The one in Lexington is at the intersection of Hayden and Smith and was there again this morning. They have big signs saying ShireExposed, but the site is nothing but a countdown right now.
