Back in 1969 Mom made me take typing and shorthand my 9th gr. year ("in case you don't finish college you can be a secretary"). Back in those days, pre-computers, most people didn't type. That allowed me to be a 4-8pm secretary at a local nursing home all through high school which was much nicer than my friends who had to roller skate out to cars with food & Root Beer at the drive ins. Min wage was $1.30 per hour.
