On The Job

Hey Roc, I've been in the medical field since '94. Prior to that, I was an iron worker (stuctural steel, welding, cutting etc. etc.) for 20 years. I still do it on the side sometimes. Anyway, I hear where you're coming from. I worked in Chicago(and surrounding suberbs). Worked on everything from Highrises, Bridges, Refineries etc.
I can see you know your way around with a "torch". Nice cut, straight, hardly no slag, you didn't have to beat it out. Anyway, anyone who can hit a speedbag like yourself, has coordination and talent. It carries over into everything else that you do in life.
Where was that video shot? Bag ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!T.J. MaTEE'[/U][/U] u:

Sitting in an office all day would be a pleasant change;
a) Climate control.
b) Pretty office girls walking around you all day
c) Being able to have a cupa when ever you want
d) Not getting dirty
e) Limited exposure to injury, accidents ie cuts, nicks, trip, falls or burns
a-b are probably the biggest losses for me. Being exposed to the eliments for 10 hrs a day can get quite grulling and ontop of that you've gotta look at the ugly mugs on most of the other guy's you're working amongst, who you've never met before.
d-e become minimal with experience, but always have the potential to happen.
a-e aside a lot of the work I do is very interesting. At the moment I'm floating between that bridge job and building a shipping port extension. Both are landmark jobs, which is what I consider, leaving my signature on the city of Sydney. As a matter of fact, if/when you alight the plane at Syd international airport and egress towards the limousine pick up area you will be standing/waiting under an awning which I fabricated and assembled, so I do have one or two signatures about townsigpic'IRON HORSE, LIVE TO RIDE'
