r/WomenInConstruction

Hello! I am pregnant in my second trimester and starting to show. I work in construction management for a GC so a good chunk of my day is spent in the office trailer (thank god because it's 100 degrees in GA rn) but I do spend a lot of time in the field as well. My typical oitfit is jeans/polo/work boots but as my bump is growing I would rather die than put any of that on. Anyone have any good recommendations for daily field wear that isn't so restrictive?

I'm with a large commercial company and all the women have the same issue. We bounce between field and office and sometimes end up looking a little rough in meetings. Are there any clothing companies that offer polished enough for the office but durible enough to take a beating in the field?

I’m just curious if any women are having issues landing a job in the market right now. Since May I’ve applied to hundreds of jobs and even landing some interviews but I’m not getting hired. I’m a hard worker in a city that’s thriving San Diego, CA but I can’t understand why it taking so long to get hired! I’m feeling discouraged and wished instead of being in STEM or in the AEC field I should have just gone into healthcare.
