Just use the old one hand in the back pocket trick if in doubt.
And poke with a dry finger, don’t dip your hand in seawater then grab on to the electrode, you’ll be fine ;
basic mains elec safety precautions.
I wonder if most sparkies are men - I’m not sure i’ve ever met a woman electrician.
The ones I met at my current job are both laid back, the journey(wo)man is a kind older church-going lady who likes pink work gloves while working on 3ph 480 lines, the apprentice is my age and speaks softly but has a lot of excellent tattoos and probably dirt bikes.
So iunno. Other than being good and reliable electricians, they may be crazy in different ways, but I like em both.

I’ve met a few, and they were/are damned good electricians. Quality was A1, as a former electrician.
I don’t know how to phrase this politely, but it comes from a place of love: were they just as nuts as male electricians?
