This Was For REAL

Supervising Women Workers

This hilariously sexist wartime industrial film was used to train factory supervisors to deal with the biggest disaster facing the United States in 1944: WOMEN. You see, women don't understand things like wrenches, machines and simple instructions; they only understand jealousy, gossip, and their hair. Learn how to keep them in line in the most patronizing way possble.

If you guys like these old training/educational films...I can try to post one in this thread every now and then (maybe every day or two)...And, of course, if you guys have any funny ones to share, that would be cool, too :)

I dont have time to watch this right now, but I am now dying to see it.


Odd that a woman posted this... Must be because a computer keyboard looks so much like a typewriter.

Were you a secretary, once ma'am? If so, you must know how to mix a mean martini. I like mine with Vodka, 3 olives please.

HaHa, I know you were joking...But, no...I had many different jobs (including working for a cemetery), but the one I had last, kept the longest, liked the most, and only quit because I was pregnant...was Construction Worker (Installing copper heat trace, steam tubing, pipe, vats, and flanges for them...Etcetera)...I was on the crew that expanded Proctor And Gamble's Ivorydale soap plant...I can't tell you how many times the biggest part of my day was removing and reinstalling the stuff that some of the MEN did incorrectly, or just sloppily...including a direct flow valve for a vat, that was put in BACKWARDS...I mean, come on, the damned things have direction indicating ARROWS on them...The excuse was "Oh, I thought it was a BALL valve" :rolleyes:

And you've definitely caught the jist of this training film...:)

Obviously the lady is confused. Why, not since th etimeof Rosy the riviter has a woman done anythign in construction. Put down the Virginia Woolf; that nonsense will just fill your head with crazy, independant ideas.

Joke with a woman? You are quite silly. Women are wired for gossip and cooking, no room for abstract thought.


:)


I can hear the old 50's voice in my head. The 50's art deco feel of Bioshock has had me in that mindset for a while now :)

Bree has to suffer with me speaking to her like that at least once a week. She has the most withering glare on earth, and I happen to think it is hotter than the surface of the sun :D


Plus, after all the old films i have either seen or heard (Courtesy of MST3k and Opie and Anthony), there is no way it would not be second nature for me :)

No way!

The people who made that film, they knew where it was AT!

We need to see more of that kind of thinking!

Yes! That is damn right.

This was probably the most informative film I've ever seen. Now I know how to handle Rayne better.


Now ask her who has to have everything explained to them like they are retarded.
