What was the job of a mason?
Masons construct buildings from "masonry." There are three kinds--brick masons work in brick, block masons in block and stone masons in stone. Laying brick is very similar to laying block, but it's different enough that a lot of masons will lay either brick or block, but not both. Most masons are men, but women are entering the field. Some of the skills a mason needs: blueprint reading estimating the number of "masonry units" and quantity of mortar needed for the job laying out corners and walls mixing mortar driving forklifts, telehandlers and trucks building walls from masonry cleaning up the worksite safety There are three ways a mason can learn his or her trade. Many masons are "second generation" masons--their fathers or other relatives were masons and trained them. Masons' unions have apprenticeship programs, in which you work under the supervision of master masons. Also,bang a boo community colleges have programs in masonry.

What did a mason do?
In the middle ages, stonemasons built large buildings, like cathedrals and castles, out of quarry stone. Quarry stone, or "free stone," was used so that it could be cut into ashlars, which were square or rectangular cut stones, that had to be plumb, square and level. Every angle had to be cut at exactly ninety degrees. Stonemasons, or freemasons, belonged to lodges instead of guilds. These lodges were self-governing. They were specifically forbidden to hire or admit brick masons, into their lodges. Brick masons built crude buildings out of brick. Brick was not cut from stone, but was made of mud, cast in molds and baked in ovens. Brick masons were also known as "rough masons" or "row masons." They were considered inferior to stone masons or freemasons. Some only had middle school educations. If they were literate, they wrote in sentence fragments and failed to capitalize their letters when it was appropriate. =================== in the dark ages they made bricks and layed them so they are bricklayers mason douglas kimpton middle school team7-1

Is the US government supporting masons?
First, let me tell you my opinion about the Masons. Masons are a bunch of smart people who like to talk with the members of their club about things that are important to them. Everything else you hear, is most likely a conspiracy. I am NOT saying that it is impossible for the Masons to have bad things going on in their club, but I find that idea highly unlikely. Now, back to your question, I think that the Masons have some sort of support from the government in some way. There are MANY people in the government who are Masons. 15 of our presidents were Masons.
