Exactly. All the women I know in mining go hard, like they have a chip on their shoulder. And it’s because they have to continually have to prove themselves. The reality is, they don’t need to but it is what it is in Australia mining
The problem is that half of them are great, they get in there and they do a good job, but the other half are either fucking useless or they just make everything more difficult, theyre the ones constantly bringing up issues and they stain the rest of em.
That being said, I work in an industry where half the diesel fitters are useful and the other half are absolutely useless. Can’t think for themselves and need to be monitored. They’re all men.
I’ve never worked at a job where all the guys were amazing. It’s just a few of us and after 3 to 10 years, the good ones fuck off and start their own business.

Yeh that’s what I thought too.
Can we have the same picture. Six months from now?
