I was just a clerk assistant CA for short... when I left school at 15..worked in the famous Savile Row London and my Aunt a dressmaker made me a three piece suit out of a camel material Vogue Pattern so was latest style of the time....I did typing and accounts answered the phone and made the coffee....when the Forestry Commission had shows and exhibitions always partaked...free day out with pay.... When they moved away to Basingstoke I changed jobs...Got a Job in Croydon walking distance to and from my home...wore what ever I wanted to and the aboves wore suits cannot remember about ties though.....Husband has a few with cobwebs on...
no way was there fun in the workplace but outside of that was a real good time as a youngster....
