Occupation- Welding

F- Welding is a very high demand job. Welding is vital to our economy.

I- Do you think women can do it too?

I think a woman can do it but to an extent because it is harder for a woman to lift a 500 pound plate and hold it there to do whatever with it so you can weld it. But just to weld I think a woman could weld anything just like a man can.

V- I think Welding is a very difficult very high demand job for anybody to do. Its a very physically and mentally demanding job, and not everybody can do this. Its very important to our community as well because almost everything nowadays is made out of some kind of metal, therefore it will need to be welded together so it becomes one full piece. Playgrounds, ships, cars, tables, chairs, etc. so many things. Theres also a few different kinds of welding.

E- My husband has been a welder for the last 7 years now. Its a very difficult job, but pays very well. My husband has worked all these years to get into shipbuilding and manufacturing, so he can build the ships. He wants to do underwater welding now or get into seaspan for the big money. He absolutely loves his job and helps us as a family with our daily lives financially.
