In the movie, they both worked in the gravel field.

Yes, but movie adaptations are often cases of revisionist narrative to support easier to follow plot points and quicker action. To know the real truth, you must go to the original texts; the Hanna Barbara cartoons. Having limited time today, and no access to a Flintstone's Boxed DVD set, I searched the web...

According to the Flintstones Fun FAQ at: http://www.topthat.net/webrock/trivia2.htm

"Although they never specifically said where Barney worked, he had some type of Government job... he would get laid off occasionally, and worked various places, such as for a Reposession firm, Fred's Quarry, and others. *side note: in one episode Betty tells a friend Barney's work is 'top secret'."

It seems to me obvious that Barney worked in the military industrial complex during the Cold War. This would be an example of subtle propaganda aimed at kids to support the existing political constructs. Perhaps the Flintstones cartoons themselves were the creation of a super secret shadow government within the Eisenhower administration and directed at mind control of the younger generation.

It is even further possible to imagine that these cartoons may have even been rendered with the help of alien technology recovered from the Roswell, NM, crash site. I mean, remember "The Great Gazoo was from the planet Zetox?" What was that all about?
