From the Collection

In thirty-one years as a ladleman I’ve never been injured. I won’t take promotion to pit boss because I have a lot of responsibility right here in this handle. It controls 150 tons of molten steel. I like it here. I don’t bother nobody and nobody bothers me. It’s just a job. from the series Working (I Do It For the Money) ()
