Excellent Prakash!
Thank you for standing up for gender equality. Back in 1974-79 when I was the ONLY female Tow Truck Operator I was a curiosity for many. Here today there are MANY female Tow Operators & I am proud to have been the first!!!!

I actually wanted to be a Plumber but my family were horrified at the thought!! I had NO idea what I wanted to be….I fell into Tow Trucking by chance & fell in love with the work, lifestyle & the fact I could help people stranded on roads & highways…..
I also had a love of medicine so that is why I went into Nursing…..
What I’ve since figured out I would have LOVED to be a Paramedic. But they are relatively new as First Responders in my country!
The 1970’s were an interesting time to be alive Prakash. Women were starting to do jobs only men had done previously. It was a time of exploration for many of us! I even worked as a Punch Press Operator. It was a gigantic floor to ceiling machine & there was little (120 lb) me running it like one of the men! it was a good feeling. Tow Trucking was fabulous. I loved being the only female in the ‘BIZ’….I got a lot of respect….miss those days!
That’s lovely!

I see that it was a transition era. Change was supposed to happen and that was the time!
Must sure have been a mixed feeling. 🙂
