I was an idiot and got her a job with some friends at pratt and miller (corvette race team build shop).... My friends hated me because of how usless she was and how the rich owners loved having her around (they used her for marketing, etc.)

Oooooo I want a job with Pratt & Miller.... tho after I take out a ZR1 they would prolly fire me

When I was in school for my IT Degree, the auto tech class was just next door and I was seeing 1 of 2 girls in the class... both hotties oddly enough. I went in during a break to see her and she was yelling at 2 guys because they couldn't figure out why the caliper bolts wouldn't back out, they got the big ratchet and was torquing down, she got the normal ratchet and turned it the other direction and it spun out... I just laughed

She was there for small engine repair and is now a tech at the local Harley shop, just shows some girls can fix cars better than guys...

I know a few women that work in an automotive field (one at a local auto parts store) and she is quite knowledgeable. Like previously said, sometimes I will go straight to her because she doesn't try to sell you something you don't want/need, she just gets you what you want right off the bat.

My dad did have one rather bad experience with women in the automotive field though....
He was at work (he works at a diesel shop where they do all kinds of stuff....literally) and was changing wiper blades and some other stuff on a truck. Had the wipers pulled away from the windshield and the blades off while he went to get the new blades. Well, one of the other mechanics there, a female, was going to pop the hood and begin work on the other things that needed done to the truck. She ended up opening the hood while the wipers were up and the hood hit them and they slammed back into their original position against the windshield....cracking it in the process.
Now, I suppose it could happen to anybody, but he came home that night and was going on about how somebody could be that stupid to open the hood with the wipers up. She still works there though and I haven't heard any other bad stories about her other than that one.

Sounds to me like an "I forgot to get my coffee this morning" kind of day. I do believe that, however unfair it is, when you are a discriminated-against minority in a situation that it works out best for you if you are a little extra careful about what you do.
