Welcome aboard young lady,
It is a pleasure to meet your acquaintance. Yes, I didn't see it coming either on the auto tech profession but it is a line of work that is becoming suited more and more for females due to the tight spaces that large hands don't fit in any longer. Engineers use computers to design with and don't take into consideration the repairing and replacing of parts as the vehicles age. Smaller hands are a definite asset as they keep pressing and compacting the mechanical areas of vehicles.
I wish you well with your pursuit of that career.
Until next time,
@sultnpapper
