CharlieH Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) Often used as counter-weight, essential ! Havnt you ever noticed that unless the girls are really slim etc and look good they cant get a job in stores etc so those that are over weight, or have other problems are kept out of the main public view in the storeroom back office or have to go work in construction etc, Its the same with age, you'll rarely see a woman over 40 working in a store, yet all the cleaners are 40+ Just an observation.

wprime Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 You sure it's a whole construction worker? You might just be looking at half of one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thanyaburi Mac Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Saw a great cartoon some years back of a Thai guy running a jackhammer. Sense of the cartoon wasn't that he was trying to break up rock or concrete, but that his feet were being used for tamping, up and down, up and down, etc. Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurwait Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 You think those girls are thai ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSure Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 You think those girls are thai ? Good point. But Thai women have traditionally worked manual labor in construction. I've seen crews of them leveling dirt and working concrete. I've seen them working on road crews doing the same thing. I don't know the reason, but it isn't a new thing.

daoyai Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 They work constuction because they may not be educated, come from another poorer country and most importantly have dark skin. I have many times seen the crews passing by on the way to a building site, all with the blue long sleeve shirts... many fit slim young long haired beauties dark beauties among them.

krisb Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I dont get thIs thread. Females actually do have the ability to work in construction in case this is all new to you, in fact theres female tradesman all over the world doing as good a job as any man. To assume they must be from poor uneducated backgrounds is really a dumb assumption. Seems you guys think they should be in the kitchen fixing you sandwiches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To assume they must be from poor uneducated backgrounds is really a dumb assumption. Seems you guys think they should be in the kitchen fixing you sandwiches. Well, all the women I have seen everyday, piling into pick ups, are labourers mostly, the odd one does rendering cement, I think "tradesmen" here in Thailand is a far stretch. Not saying they dont exist, just not the "norm"Elsewhere around the world , possibly, but they would be very much a minority. 12% in construction "trades" 1% in manual "trades" in the Uk according to a recent article, as an example. Of the women working on my own property, they were mostly the wives of the guys, and they were labouring for them. This thread, is not about if they should or shouldnt, its merely commenting that they do, and the possible reasons behind it. Thats my interpretation anyway.

David48 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 When you are working construction ... I matters not your gender. Particularly if you are driving poles for a foundation. For those who have not seen this ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FB2uHnztADU&feature=kp I do like the guy with the Tamborine creating the rhythm ... OH ... notice how quickly that went in ... Bangkok Mud ... some construction foundation poles are 15 meters deep ... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David48 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) At the Farm we gets lots of labourers who come to catch the fish. Be it man or woman ... you get in and get it done ...

Seastallion Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 There's a 5 story apartment block being built next door. All the permanent workers are Mon. As many women as men. The strange thing is, all the men are very skinny, one woman is a wraith, all the other women are fat, some very very fat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I think this would be the ultimate goal for many of these women. Just imagine sitting around the house fixing some sandwiches and beers for the husband, instead of manually handling cement/sand bags all day long.

I'd happily give up construction work to stay home, look after the baby, cook, clean, get beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They love singing too....often the women will break out in song while they work. It's quite nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen a beauty construction worker. Beauties have so many other opptions-me thinks. Construction workers look like so many of the girls farang dudes marry.............lol.
