I'm an Engineer... have worked in Construction Management in and around NYC... the Mid -East... for 43 years...

Years ago I was doing some homework at work.. on the Williamsburg Bridge.. when an Ironworker walked by going to break... He leaned over and looked at my work and told me It was wrong... I was like wtf.. later talking to him.. he explained the problem and how to derive the solution... This Ironworker was actually an actuary... he help me with Calculus and Diff EQs...

But he hid it he never wanted the other Ironworkers to know he was a brainiac...


I asked why he was working as in Ironworker... NYC Ironworkers make huge coin... but have short careers....

He said when he was done working for Local 40. he could have an easy life as an actuary...
