"The girl" always bugged me...and I was born in 1951. It was so demeaning to me. Or "I'll have my girl do it."
What an amazing woman. I look forward to watching the movie. It's one of the very few things Obumbler did right.
I took it as a form of respect. Everyone knew who Glenn was wanting to check the numbers.
“’The girl’ always bugged me..”
I’m a northerner transplanted in the south, and I always feel creepy when people call me “Miss ____”. To me it sounds like they feel subservient to me in some way. Now I realize it’s a term of respect for older ladies — but it still kind of bugs me.
“I look forward to watching the movie.”
The movie was excellent. I was skeptical at first, as DH was in missile defense his entire career and there were many cases when minorities were hired over better-qualified people to bump up the quotas. Work suffered. This movie was nothing like this. The ladies were hired because they were geniuses; quotas were not a “thing” then.
