Season #2, Episode #46: Early Life Lessons & Characters To Meet As An Apprentice
Manage episode 317736361 series 2905014
Leslie is kicking off Season #2 with this podcast episode about early lessons learned while she was an apprentice electrician back in the 1990’s. Additionally, she shares descriptions of a few unusual characters along the way. Leslie also shares her experience with facing gender discrimination as well as witnessing prejudice against her minority brothers and sisters in the trade. Leslie shares that sexual harassment was just an accepted behavior on the job if she wanted to be there. Leslie learned to develop thick skin and a wicked sense of humor to combat any form of harassment. Apologies if you detect a rough voice since Leslie has been ill with congestion and speaking has been a challenge. Leslie also warns about freely sharing personal information since it can become the source of jobsite rumors on the job site. Check out my website at: www.ConstructionTales.com for more information.
