I’m a female carpenter – fans say I look hot in my new work shorts and wouldn’t get anything done if I was on the job
A FEMALE carpenter wowed fans as she showed off her new work shorts, with many saying they wouldn’t get a thing done if she was on the job.
The TikTok user known as @j03f1sh drew attention when she took to the social media site to parade around in her new look.
‘Brittney’ teamed her tight black shorts with a black t-shirt, dark baseball cap, sunglasses and tan work boots.
She strutted her stuff to Beer Can Kuddy as she struck a number of poses in front of the camera.
The footage clearly struck a chord with fans as it has been viewed around 150,000 times and notched up 10,000 likes.
One commentator wrote: “I don’t think I would get anything done if you were on my job. Sigh.”
Another one said: “Just when I thought I’ll never hire another apprentice. U got me thinking.”
A third added: “We need more women in trades.”
Sadly, there were some detractors.
One, who clearly wasn’t impressed, wrote: “Maybe just go to f**king work and put your phone in your pocket.”
While another chipped in with: “All the gear never been used, the phone gets a good workout though.”
Brittney wasn’t phased by the negative comments, replying to one commentator, she wrote: “Hahaha. They think they are original with them but it’s all the same stuff over and over,” adding a trio of laughing emojis.
It comes after another female carpenter took to TikTok to hit back at trolls who said it wasn’t a “girl’s job”.
Lauren Larsen admitted that she was worried about her career path at first but she is now happy with her choice.
She shared a video on TikTok where she is wearing her orange and blue work uniform while in other snaps she wears shorts, a hoodie and boots.
She wrote in the caption: “You start a carpentry apprenticeship at 19.”
Her followers praised her for her stunning looks and many shared their experiences from working in the trade.
Someone wrote: “Yess more girls in the trade industry! I’m a sparkie apprentice.”
One added: “I am a female concreter! I love to see us showing how capable we are!”
Another female carpenter also went on the site to show how she managed to look chic and stylish while wearing her work gear.
Shadow Verdoni – a carpenter from Edmonton, Alberta – has found success on TikTok sharing her outfits and a glimpse of her life on the job.
“Breaking the stigma of ‘girls don’t do construction work,'” Verdoni wrote over one of her videos.
“I loveeeee when females work in a male-dominated industry,” one commenter said. “It fuels my fire.”
In another clip, Verdoni shows off her tool belt and her work outfit – a little black tank top, some elastic yoga pants, and a hefty pair of steel-toed boots.
