Tappan Zee Bridge builder laboring to find welders

Tappan Zee Bridge is about 30 minutes north of New York City. This project will be going on for years. Thought there might be some people here that can fit the bill. FYI.

Gotta love it. Have to bring in the highly trained UNION welders to save the day. The welders in my local (pipewelders) prolly pass their gate tests (on the job) I'd guess 95% of the time. There are a lot of variables when welding tho that can cause a bad weld. That's why they X-Ray a lot. And it is not hard to repair a bad weld unless it's totally fucked and those people don't last long in the trade.
I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

Most of the "blue collar" guys I know in this area are very competent, and do quite well for themselves. The TZB job is huge, and a competent guy can expect to make a lot of contacts in this area. For the right person, it would be a good gig.
