Hey I'm new to this forum (well, to ANY forum haha) and I registered in hopes to gain more knowledge! Also, any women electricians here?? How is it on the field as a woman? What do you ladies specialise in?

Of course sorry Julie!

There was a recent post calling us ALL “old women” Does that count?

Welcome to the forum, feel free to start a conversation with me for a private chat.

I am wondering if maybe there should be a forum section for you girls, kind of like the arms but with a more biological entry requirement.
“The powder room?”

And maybe a 'snug' area where the men folk can smoke their pipes whilst leaning on the mantle piece discussing engines and beards, etc.

It would probably be pink! Please don't... just don't... I couldn't stand it!

Can’t women discuss engines and beards?

I thought that in today’s society everything had to be inclusive... no “men only” or “women only” areas...

?‍?‍

I was carrying on James's blatant sexism

Happy to discuss engines both 2 and 4 stroke... beards... the only personal experience I have of beards is their tickling capabilities when you're getting up close to a chap sporting one for a quick smooch, but I do think some men look so good with them.

I'm gonna stop now because if I don't, we'll be talking about Geordie and Irish men and their accents.

What about the scouser and all the Jocks?

 

[SparkyChick]

Calm down then... calm down lad... (sorry Tel), but no thanks to the Scouse accent. As for Scottish... it can be nice, but it's just not as nice as the Geordie or Irish accent... in my opinion

Does that make me racist? What about if I add... "But I like haggis!"

 

[littlespark]

Final word on accents, as I think the thread has wavered slightly from the original topic...

There are as many accents in Scotland as there are in England. Some from town to town.
Edinburgh is different to Glasgow is different to way up the north is different to the borders.... and don’t ask about Hawick. They make up their own words (ie “tooty thrie”)
I’ll let you work that out for yourselves
