Pink Hard Hatz Construction is a woman-owned and operated construction company serving Chicago

CHICAGO --

According to the U.S Bureau of Labor Statistics, women make up just under 11% of construction workers."I was sitting in a meeting. Once again, it was all-male contractors. And I thought about how females can do this," Ivy said."I always have work coming because what I'm finding out is that people, especially women and seniors, want to see a woman. They're tired of being taken advantage of," Ivy said.

Ivy has partnered with Chicago Women in Trades, a nonprofit working to get women involved in various trade careers, and hopes her efforts have a lasting impact on women across the country.

More power to them but my question is do they do the work? Anyone can own a company and they will receive bids just for being minority as well as female owned. I just don’t see them say, frame a house or hump packs of shingles up a ladder.

Oh God please don't build my house. I don't want it falling on me.

Good for them…
