A guide to hiring women circa 1943
Mikey 5 commentsOh my, how much times have changed. This 1943 "Guide to hiring women" from Transport Magazine is a reminder of how hilariously politically incorrect and sexist men were at the time. Best part:
"General experience shows that "Husky" girls - those who are just a little on the heavy side - are more even tempered and efficient than their underweight sisters"
