Reply to comment by arashmara in Bridge Painter dies after Semi- crashes into the bucket lift by [deleted]

I wasn’t implying that they aren’t. Just that no articles had said anything more specific than the generic term “construction worker”. Thank you for the clarification. And damn sorry to hear that. Stay safe out there.

My husband is a bridge painter down on the Clemente Bridge and we saw the news first thing this morning. He instantly said it was a bridge painter because he drives by there each day and knows the company on that site. I haven’t seen it actually published that way yet either, just still using construction worker. But those bridge painters definitely fall under that category.

I used to paint transmission lines before doing bridge work. Painting bridges is way more dangerous in every aspect of the job.
