A female mechanic has captured one of her male colleagues on camera telling her directly to her face: "You don't belong here."

a female automotive repair worker has shared a video of the disparaging remarks one male colleague directed at her.

Footage of the astonishing exchange was posted to TikTok by Mechanicchickjess, with the resulting video racking up more than 6.7 million views.

The incident serves as a further reminder that while much has changed in the world of work today, sexism and sexist attitudes still exist.

According to one TikTok post, the woman sharing the clips is Jessica E. Cardoso, an Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) qualified automotive technician from Florida.

1. I was an aircraft mechanic for over forty years

I worked with a lot of female mechanics during that time frame.

Can't recall a single one that wasn't competent.

Of the males I worked with...I would be hard pressed to say the same

2. Two places I've taken my cars to have female mechanics

and they're very good at their jobs.

5. The dealership where I've taken my cars for years has an entirely female service department

The guy in charge of the mechanics told me once that he wouldn't have it any other way, they do a better job. I haven't met the actual mechanics so I don't know if any are female, but the woman I always deal with tells them exactly what to do, she knows her stuff. And I've gotten to know her well enough that I know she's "one of us." One time I was in the waiting room and I'd turned the TV there to MSNBC - and when she came in to give me an update on my car, Mike Pence happened to be on and se just blurted out "I hate him." She's talked politics with me ever since...
