Hi Imperfect Mums, just wondering if there are many of you in the sisterhood that are Mums, but also pursue a career in a trade that has always been seen as a mans trade? And how do you find that experience? I have always had an interest in being a tradesperson. I am considering applying for an adult apprenticeship in the electrical industry, but am still a little unsure of how I would make it in 'a mans world'. Some experiences and advise would be muchly appreciated? Thanks! :)

Go for it!!!! I think you could make a thing of it in your future as the 'female electrician'. I just want to cheer you on. My dad wanted one of us (all girls) to go into something electrical as that was his trade. He couldn't get us interested.
My hubby is a boilermaker and has worked with a few females over the years, there has never been any issues with been treated fair etc
Go for it! I have a friend who is an electrician in a hospital and she loves it :)
You'll never know if you don't try.
Good Luck! :)
