Didn’t quite understand the prompt…

An Immigration Officer is interviewing foreign workers to see if they have useful job skills to earn a work permit. When asked what they do for a living, the first applicant answers “I’m a gas fitter.” Oh good,” says the Immigration officer, “we need gas fitters. Work permit approved!” Another applicant comes and answers that they’re a diesel fitter. “Perfect,” the Immigration officer replied, “we need more diesel fitters these days. Approved!” A third applicant comes along and has a bit of trouble with understanding and speaking English. The Immigration Officer asks, “And what do you do for work?” The answer comes out with a heavy accent, “I put the lace in ladies’ panties.” The Immigration Officer is a both amused and confused, and figures they must’ve heard the answer incorrectly. “Can you say that again, please?” The answer is the same - the applicant says very slowly “I put the lace in ladies’ panties,” and pulls a pair of clean, lacy underwear out of a pocket to illustrate the point. “I’m sorry,” the Immigration Officer answers, “but what we really need just now are people in the trades. It would be different if you were a gas fitter or a diesel fitter…” “Yeah, okay!” the applicant nods excitedly in agreement, then holds up the pair of underwear, stretching them out slightly to show the lace better. “Deez’ll fit ‘er!”
