I wouldn't talk her out of it because she is a girl, I would talk her out of it because it is a thankless job most of the time. Your average person has no idea how a car works, they just know that you took too long to fix their car and it cost too much money. Being a fleet mechanic is similarly unrewarding. Drivers thrash the vehicle, and then complain because it took you 2 days to get it running again.

No thanks. I did it for 10 years and that was enough. I like to work on my own stuff, but I'll never wrench for a living again.
