Work continued and I was promoted and moved into the "Accounts Section". At last no more filing. My work had now progressed to numbers, stock control, invoicing, purchase ledger, writing cheques, chasing wholesalers and payroll.
I had now after a couple of years learnt the art of talking to the men and blotting out the feminist remarks. But I got the job/tasks completes. Charm helped at times and well us women do have the knowledge of influence, and flattery will get you anywhere approach!
I even had another new car this time my Grandad traded my Mini in for a Austin Metro. Much better car but it always stank of petrol. After turning off the ignition it coughed and spluttered for a few seconds! The next year this was part exchanged for a Diesel Diahatsu Charade. Only filled the tank every two weeks, was awesome.
