    Good for you Lexi, we really do need hard working, competent workers coming into all industries! Doesn’t matter if you’re a male or female as long as you like working and “completing a project”. The satisfaction is enormous and your professional work ethic and skills puts you at the top!! Again-good for you!!

      and if you don't mind getting electrocuted for pennies on a dollar right? What people don't know she grew up in a family of electricians. So, she could easily start her own company or do her own contracting work. Yet, other's aren't as fortunate where they have to work for a company and those companies abuse you. They will push you even if it's not a safe environment they will keep telling you to do the job. The moment you get electrocuted and then see your employer quickly post your job online. That's the reality of the work. Who cares about you and what you did. We will find another dumb guy that will put his life on the line for pennies on a dollar. That is why no one does that work. One guy having 20 years experience almost got electrocuted by touching grounding wire... that was coming from a different building. Someone connected a hot wire to ground. He was taking the ground rod out and sparks were flying and he did it without gloves. He quickly stopped and put on gloves and was confused.

      Lovely to see people being so supportive, especially older people. I sadly talked to an electircian who thought the exact opposite. He said women have no business in men's jobs and used his bad experience with his female coworker ("she sucked!" ...or maybe was inexperienced?) as an evidenced that all women will be bad at this. It was disheartening to read, especially since Lexi is one living proof of that not being true.

    Hey Lexi. I don't know you outside of YT but I was a proud Papa seeing you on Fox. I don't think you realize how much you are doing for our industry. It would be great to see you do something with Mike Rowe. I recently read that for every 10 construction workers that retire, only 3 young people enter the industry. Your generation of skilled trades people are going to be earning more than doctors and lawyers 20 by the time you hit 50.

      @@kronk3892 For one, she’s a female in a field predominantly occupied by males, she’s making it VISUALLY where young women like my daughters can see they have choices if they want to go to school or take up a trade, she’s confident in what she’s doing which gives young girls, women promise that they can do it, more importantly, Lexi is showing young girls that they can be independent if they want to and still be happy. As a father, that’s all I ever want for my girls, instead of being told it’s a man’s job and they can’t work it. That’s what I mean by inspiring.
      My daughters can work on their own vehicles, carpentry, something they learned from myself and their uncles.
      But seeing a woman like Lexi do what she does and still show her feminine ways at and after work, is inspiring to my daughters.

    Good for you Lexi ! I'm entering my 25th yr as a commercial/ Residential Electrician and 1/3 of that has been as a service tech in GA. I even spent 5yrs traveling, doing Solar and generators for Disaster relief. I've tried to get quite a few people on doing this work but as you know, this kind of work will break you. Its not for everybody. Most people don't last very long when they start learning what we really do out in the field. So yeah, I applaud you! 🤘🏻👏
