The Women’s Work Contest deadline has been extended to November 30th at midnight. So, there’s still lots of time to share your experience of women in non-traditional work by commenting here or by emailing afewkindsofwrong@gmail.com. It doesn’t have to be long or detailed or, as some people have thought, have to be a story of how hard it is to be a woman in a non-traditional job (but if that’s your experience, feel free to share it as well). “I’m a mechanic and have been for four years” is great but longer is fine as well. So, share your experiences (about yourself or someone you know) and you could win books.
A non-traditional job that women are still breaking into locally is as a Transit Operator (a.k.a. Metrobus driver).
