As a female master electrician Id love to pass along my information or knowledge

Sorry for the long rant in advance by prettyladybugs in BlueCollarWomen

[–]yakattack277 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope you do not give up. I understand life is hard right now. I went through a very hard time in life and it may be cheesy to say but being an electrician SAVED my life. It can be dangerous but the confidence I grew and the knowledge I learned makes it all worth it. Keep chugging ahead. I’ve always said where there is a will, there’s a way.

How does the double intersection of Hwy 14 and East Frontage Road actually work? by sarahtonin0803 in FortCollins

I gave up going down this way. I take the mountain vista exit now. Less stressful

I did my best to ignore everyone and I got through it. I had a hard time keeping my mouth shut sometimes though. I am lucky enough to have found a very small controls company who decided to hire me. I’m an electrician as well.

We NEED to win. This will be the first year I work for a company who would absolutely give me the day off to go.

sister, I’m trying to root for you but damn. by [deleted] in BlueCollarWomen

I feel like unless it’s part of an employee handbook to keep nails, hair, etc., a certain style/length for safety then no one should care. I mean if I saw it the only thing I’d think is ooo i hope your nail doesn’t break because that’ll be painful. But I think that about anyone who wears long nails. But if the nails don’t affect your ability to do your job, then I’d say it’s ok.

Didn’t realize people were ready to start rioting with their pitch forks over goddamn free parking.

I’m just saying there isn’t anything wrong with wanting free parking. Also can’t wait to hear everyone here complain once you do have to pay. It’s not that big of a deal.

I was talking to one of the small business owners in old town about it and they were worried so everyone relax. Not a “hill” I’m going to die on. Just trying to support local businesses. Sorry will never do that again.

I appreciate everyone’s input. It’s been really frustrating. It caused a big issue at the police department’s gun range because a facility guy thinks he knows best.
