The new bridge in 6th of October City—supposed to ease traffic, they said—already has cracks along the expansion joints. Same contractor, different subsidiary. I saw a worker today with two fingers missing, handling rebar without gloves. He looked at me like he already knew what I was thinking. I gave him water, not work. My team calculates load tolerances while the city drowns in surface fixes. My daughter asked me last night why the roads wobble when she closes her eyes in the car. I told her it was the heat. It wasn’t.
