    Back in my day I remember being paid each month with cash $$ for my work, standing in line at the bank to deposit cash, standing in line again to withdraw cash to pay bills and buy goods with actual cash. No ATM, no Debit Card, No Credit Card, No telephone banking, No online banking.

    We held the door for women and it wasn't considered sexist.

    Back in my day we drank from garden hoses and didn't get sick
    We didn't get participation awards
    We walked the 4 miles into town unsupervised
    A belt across the backside was considered just good parenting
    and if we didn't do our jobs, we didn't eat...
