When I interviewed candidates for my assistant's post (and acquired the one who is now "leaving"). One of the candidate worked locally for a construction firm.  This poor child - only 17 - was an admin working on a building site where the site offices were like a  village and there was a small army of builders, brickies, chippies, sparkies, surveyors, foremen etc.  They even had their own traffic managers.  She was the ONLY admin and the ONLY woman on site.  It was a punishing job and she was desperate to get away from them.  

Michelle, you have my sympathy.
