 I miss secretaries! - smokie
I think I've spoken before here about being involved in the introduction of Office Automation to Coal Board HQ in London, and how suddenly we had senior staff (and I mean very senior) single finger typing letters etc when there were whole typing pools crammed full of ladies who were much quicker and considerably cheaper.

Not meaning the ladies were cheap, just they were able to produce letters for considerably less cost than a Director General :-)
