Kinda funny how people think women's only jobs are where they see rainbows and smell roses all day long!

I know a trucker girl, like literally she drives semi trucks. She’s cute as can be, sassy and a businesswoman starting her own trucking business. Young and beautiful too. Not the type of woman you would think you’d find in the trucking business. She self promotes herself, makes a half million a year now and will make more as she builds. Smart cookie and started out as. Real over the road hard core trucker.

Op you should think about what field attracts you. No point in being a welder if you don't like welding. None of us can answer that question for you.

I've been involved in Maritime and Commercial Fishing industries for 35 years. Any capable person, man, woman, or other, is greatly encouraged to train in skilled trades.
Women are capable and qualified to pursue any skilled trade they want, my wish is for more interested in pursuing skilled trades.

Gunsmiths are as scarce as hen's teeth. A few community colleges offer the basics including the machinist part. It takes an eye for detail and a feel for art to turn in sought after one. Good ones have waiting lists from here to there.

A lot of people have gone into these fields over the past decade and there's a bit of an oversupply at the Rad Tech level.
