I call it the “glad I’m not a woman in the workplace back in those days” show.

You are supposed to go back into the era. Office “romance” was common back then. I remember my Dad’s Drug store when I was a kid and all the hanky panky going on. Now it is just a fantasy, smashed like most of the good stuff. I bet you would go out with Don Draper (before you were married of coarse) if he was to persuade you.

LOL – Yeah, I’d tap that. 😉

I’ve shove you into the path of a speeding 1961 DeSoto to jump his bones before you could get to him, UCGal.

Actually, I entered the workplace during the last gasps of that era. The feminists had marched, laws had been passed, but everyone, including women, were still walking around in a daze, not fully comprehending what had happened. So a lot of the earlier behaviors continued, including the 3-martini lunches (which could also explain some of the daze).

Thanks to the unjustly maligned “women’s libbers”, we girls didn’t have to wear girdles and bullet bras anymore. But you never told an employer that you knew how to type. Otherwise, no matter how much education you had or type of degree(s) you held, you’d be placed in the secretarial/typing pool (and kept there!). All in all, a strange time.

Funny thing, though. When I was young, I had a firm and fast rule about not dating married men, to which I steadfastly adhered. And quite a few were Don Draper clones. It wasn’t a moral thing, I regret to say. It came down to “what do I get out of this?”, and in every scenario, the married man was getting more than I was.
