I knew a master electrician who was like 5'11, and weighed no more than 125 pounds. She was firecracker energy from sunrise to sunset. She was a very good electrician. Impressive trades worker.

That said, she could not get along with others. She went right to eff you with the first deviation from how she wanted things to be. She had to go. She needed to own her own shop.

I work mostly for my best compadre-a contractor I’ve known 15 years-I manage projects, do any physical labor that a strong female my size can do, and make sure safety protocols such as proper body mechanics are followed-my transferable skills and all that-my own sub-part of the job is the ceramic tile installation and hand application of texture and various faux finishes, which I learned to do at 14, working for my uncle on jobs in the summer.

I don’t get along with other women-especially in a work environment-mostly because I don’t relate to them at all-my mindset is more in line with a guy’s-and I look at men as equals-my way is not the only one and I do not have to be the queen bee around them-it is just the opposite with women.
