[speaker001:] we're set
[speaker002:] okay
[speaker001:] what changes do you feel have happened
[speaker002:] oh I guess the first thing has been the right for the right for women to vote I think that has been a major change and also the fact that um there are so much many more women in the work force nowadays than there were and that's probably going to increase you know
[speaker001:] right increases increases each year doesn't it
[speaker002:] I'm sorry
[speaker001:] it increases each year I think
[speaker002:] it sure does yeah there's a lot more women in the work place nowadays
[speaker001:] well and I think women have kind of had uh in the past the real subservient role
[speaker002:] role right
[speaker001:] and uh
[speaker002:] that's changing
[speaker001:] uh well we we still do to some degree but uh
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] uh I think it's not as much as it was
[speaker002:] yeah right yeah I I agree it
[speaker001:] I and especially I think with women increasingly working they're going to have to demand more from men because there's just impossible impossible to keep up on everything else
[speaker002:] definitely has changed uh-huh yeah yeah
[speaker001:] have more of an active role in taking care of children more of an active role in taking care of the home
[speaker002:] well you know they've been talking about and I don't know um what the status is on it but you know women get maternity leave and stuff like that and I know that they've there's been discussion about men also getting maternity leave
[speaker001:] right
[speaker002:] to help out but you know I haven't really heard much about that recently
[speaker001:] well you know there's a lot of companies that won't give maternity women maternity leave for that very reason
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] uh in fact I know the school districts down here you they don't have maternity leave um you simply have to take accumulate accumulate your sick leave
[speaker002:] oh is that right oh
[speaker001:] and take your sick leave
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] and I don't know uh if bigger companies do but when I was employed with the school district I didn't have maternity leave either and that was the reason because they thought was showing prejudice to women and not to men but
[speaker002:] huh that's interesting
[speaker001:] so uh
[speaker002:] that's a bummer though I mean
[speaker001:] yeah it is you have to save all of your uh vacation time
[speaker002:] you got to take some time off
[speaker001:] you do you have to save all your vacation time and that's usually how it's uh happened but uh
[speaker002:] yeah uh-huh
[speaker001:] what do you see uh changing in the future
[speaker002:] I think that we're probably going to see a lot more companies um run by females
[speaker001:] right and and top level
[speaker002:] and we'll probably I'm sorry right right upper management more women in upper management and probably uh we'll see more females in political roles
[speaker001:] maybe top level
[speaker002:] more governors and I think you know roles like that
[speaker001:] that'd be kind of nice
[speaker002:] well we've got in Texas we have a a female governor and we had a female mayor here in Dallas and she just her term just ended
[speaker001:] that's right that's right
[speaker002:] and uh so I think we're probably going to see more of that in the future
[speaker001:] yeah I think that's probably good a little more integration
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] and uh maybe not so much that we sit on the back burners and
[speaker002:] right you know I mean and that's fine with me but sometimes I mean I'm not a women's libber by any means but I do there are issues that you know as far as like equal pay for men and women and that kind of stuff I
[speaker001:] I think right
[speaker002:] totally am for but I don't get into the um
[speaker001:] right
[speaker002:] the real women libber movement you know
[speaker001:] no I don't either I don't think they're ever going to prove that men and women are equal
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] we just function differently
[speaker002:] right right
[speaker001:] and uh I'm not capable of lifting what uh a man can lift and you know that type of that type of thing but uh one of the big changes uh
[speaker002:] yeah right
[speaker001:] they're doing in Salt Lake is uh and they're probably I'm sure in Dallas since you're big places a lot more women are uh working right out of their home with their PC's or their lap computers or whatever
[speaker002:] yeah I've I've heard of that um I haven't really talked to anybody that's you know too involved with that but I mean I think that is a like the cottage industries
[speaker001:] I think that
[speaker002:] is is that what you're talking about women working out of their homes
[speaker001:] right
[speaker002:] yeah um I think it's wonderful
[speaker001:] right you only have to check in with the office once or twice a week and
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] course they're talking about uh that we're going to be able to do our grocery shopping and
[speaker002:] oh I know by the phone and all that
[speaker001:] banking and everything like that so uh it'd be kind of exciting in some ways to to see a little bit more of that and some ways it might be kind of scary
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] think anybody could do it but
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] anyway
[speaker002:] yeah I wouldn't mind just calling up the grocery store and giving them my order and
[speaker001:] right
[speaker002:] going an hour later and picking it up
[speaker001:] right but then you know there's the process of selection would you have to give them the brand and uh
[speaker002:] right right
[speaker001:] you know when you shop you usually compare the prices and would be nice though
