Q: Women doing building and road construction?

As far as I can remember, China is one of the places (if not the only) where I saw women mix cement, move blocks or hammer asphalt, and I find it quite interesting. I've definitely never seen that back home. Does it happen in your country?

The big mines in Canada prefer to have women driving the big (200+Ton) trucks and running the heavy equipment.

They have better safety records and treat the very expensive equipment with more care, adhere to the rules better than the "macho" guys.

It's all about equal rights, nothing better than having female construction workers yelling ''hey baby'' at you and whistling.
