Who turned out to be a woman. While the shock was pretty strong for 3 kiwi blokes, she fixed it and left with barely a nod to us useless students and we thought "Hey she was a good tradesperson" Of such moments is one's life journey made.<br />In terms of learning stuff, there are ladies nights at the local hardware shop and the local night school has automotive classes for women.Hamish Mackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18079552635307235197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8526498499129692237.post-17410176950823767412011-05-16T19:11:52.229-04:002011-05-16T19:11:52.229-04:00From Fish's link:

Even something just covering such basics as replacing lights, checking fluids, and changing tires would be a good start. I personally think that routine maintenance should be taught as part of drivers' ed, but I'm a stickler.Big Bad Bald Bastardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01983025559556548658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8526498499129692237.post-45614268083924373152011-05-13T15:33:34.838-04:002011-05-13T15:33:34.838-04:00I think most guys are decent.
