As a technically savvy woman, I am very happy to be in an industry that is still dominated by men. I feel at home with a wrench in my hand. Of course, as a female service technician in mechanical engineering, you can’t be too picky and have to overcome certain difficulties.
For example, I very quickly got into the habit of driving to the customer in my work clothes and not changing on site. Why? Well it’s quite simple. Many of the companies where I service our machines and systems don’t have any sanitary facilities for women. But that’s not a problem for me at all. I just get in the car with my work clothes already on and drive off.
Prejudices about “women and technology” still exist here and there, but to be honest I find them rather amusing. I assume that I do my job quite well – otherwise TRUMPF wouldn’t send me out to customers.
