Women on Twitter reveal worst experiences working in male-dominated industries

Women are sharing their worst experiences from working in predominantly male-dominated environments and work industries online.

The conversation started when Twitter user Rachel Antomattei, from Washington, D.C., asked her followers what their worst experience of working in ‘a male-dominated industry’ was.

She took to the social media platform on Thursday, February 21, when she tweeted, saying: ‘Alright ladies, what’s ur worst story about working in a male-dominated industry?’

Rachel, with the username @lameravioli, then proceeded to share some of her worst stories from experience she had working in such industries.

She continued: ‘Mine is probably when a subcontractor told me he wished my safety vest was shorter so he could see my butt and then grabbed my hand looking for a wedding ring.

‘My company won a job for a black church and the project team started joking about having to make the balconies structurally sound enough to hold the “African Americans jumping around praising da Lord”,’ she added.
