Office Rules 100 Years Ago
A century ago in many offices employees swept floors dusted furniture and shelves and kept lamps filled cleaned chimneys and trimmed wicks. Windows washed weekly pens trimmed nibs and regular hours were 7 am to 6 pm with Sunday closed. Men earned weekly evenings off for courting or church and five years of faithful service with thrift earned a five cent daily raise. Smoking liquor barbershops pools or public halls marked suspected character.
