- Welcome back! last week a Wall Street journal article was posted highlighting how my social media has encouraged others to pursue trade careers and I’m truly honored to have been involved in the article as well as the story pieces! Here are some of the stories as well as the WSJ full article!

Good for you! About time people recognized talent in the trades!
"I could have use you this past weekend" bro got that dawg in him lmao
wasted no time 😂😂
My daughter is a electrician and she follows u good job gurl
So so awesome Lex congrats on your continued success 👏👏 can't wait for your next TH-cam drop keep up the fabulous work ✌️
Being a busy electrician and now famous it's no surprise that time is precious. All the best Lexi!
lol she’s not famous😂🤣
Congratulations girl
I just in enrolled to become electrician myself after being in the medical field for 11yrs. Very exciting for this new experience and journey
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.
@@kitcat2449 I worked with quite a few female colleagues and I found them more “particular” about their quality of work as well as their organizational skills! You can create this in Lexi’s finished products!!
AWESOME WORK !!! You are rocking it Lexi !!
Congratulations !
I watched it on the news and recognized you right away.
If you weren't famous before, you are now.
Same, she nailed it.
Its cool to see you on the news and hopefully you will get more people interested in your channel and you can help more people coming in to your feild.
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.
Right on Lexi. Nothing but mad respect for what you continue to do while inspiring the next generation . You definitely deserve ALL of the flowers you are getting and continue to get.
What is she doing differently that hasn’t been done before?
@@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.
Congrats Lexi - Keep up the great work inspiring others about careers in the trades.
Awesome young lady! Hats off to you from a septuagenarian former industrial electrician. I admire your dedication, skill set and work ethic. Keep up the good work!
Congrats Lexi again on your success continue to spread positive energy to the world really fucking killin it 💪🏼
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! 🤘🏻👏
You are the BOMB! Your positive influence is huge! So glad to see you get this publicity to improve your outreach.
So awesome, I'm happy for you, congrats ! I'm 47 years old and you've definitely influenced me !!
Way to go Lexi, very proud of you and your work ethic.
Congratulations! What an update & accomplishment.
Appreciate your videos & updates.
No worries about the TH-cam videos. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏾
Good job kiddo...about time people recognize hard working female trades people... Glad you got you recognition my love kudos...
It is so impressive what you have accomplished and the message you put out to people that they don't have to go to college there are options in trades. The traded are what keep this country running. Congratulations on everything
Wow Lexi, que lo que, sigue en la lucha. You are amazing
Damn look at you getting famous lol grats
You put in the work and deserve the rewards
I have been in the building trades and contracting world for more than 30 years. I am so thrilled to see the diversity of trades people today. I am especially proud and thrilled to see some of the younger trades people like yourself promoting the careers and work. Keep doing what your doing.
Congrats and thanks for continuing to inspire and share!
That's great! Pretty cool that you were interviewed by some big channels. The WSJ article is really good. Congratulations and well done.
Shining on em!🙌🏼💪
Proud of you, Lexi!
Daaawg, I was just tellin my friend about your channel yesterday. Hilarious this what’s been goin on.
Good work G.
They come cause she’s gorgeous and they stay cause she’s great at it
That’s awesome!!!!! Good for you!! Good job!👍
Strange that I’m beaming with pride and I don’t even know you. You’re generation gives me hope. Growing up I was taught that you either go to college or flip burgers. This mentality did my generation (X) and the entire country such a disservice. Keep setting a bad-ass example and get that money Lex!
Go Lexi!! You really set a good example for up and coming people! 😎
Amazing lexi,I told you that people are watching you on how you Inspire people that are looking for something and especially women. ❤
You are a great example for the new generation to learn something instead of wasting time on other things.👍👍
Great Job, I'm 64, I also when to trade school. Be came a union painter, after that, 30 yrs as a Correction Officer (retired), Became a LV 1 RV tech, now going to RVTI school in Elkhart IN to become a Level 2 tech. All good jobs with out college. Thanks Don
Hey congrats! Good job showing everyone that you can do it and that it's a good career to consider.
Way to go Lex! 💪🙏🤍
Life is better thanks to lexis videos, congrats on your success, you worked hard for it, & more than earned it. :)
Great to see a young woman performing quality work. Three of my coworkers are younger then 35 and in at least ten years never saw one of them open the code book our company supplies each of us with.
Been seeing you pop up in my newsfeed, congrats.
You definitely inspired me. I’m starting a preapprenticeship course in carpentry in july! 😊
Always knew you were a rock star since the first video I saw you in ! 🤟
That’s amazing, happy for you 👍🏽😍
So crazy lol, seeing you o main stream tv is so cool 👍🏻👏👏❤️
Awesome!!
Congratulations on the feature!👏
Congratulations good for you. It's about time that you are recognized.
Lexi, I was rather amused that none of the news people pronounced your name the same. 🤣 I have this same problem except that I was not blessed with a short last name so most of the time I get people looking at me with that "oh sh*t" expression.
Congrats Lexi 👏 love your content
WOW Really cool getting interviewed like that by major news outlets !
After school I became a paramedic, then bought a tool franchise which eventually led me to playing pro golf. Started an apprenticeship programme 4 months ago ( 54 years old now) . Regretting the fact that I didn't go electric when I was fresh out of school!!! Now trying to absorb as much as I can in my career switch....
That's amazing keep up the good work
❤❤🎉🎉 love it , congratulations 🎊
