Ever see a woman actually start at the bottom in a "mans world", and make it to the top? I have

This woman did it and I watched her do it. She hired into the same factory I worked at doing the same jobs I started out doing. We were both production workers. Or sweat heads as some called us. I remember seeing her and a group of new employees walking in for the first day on the job there. We always stared at the new workers. Don't know why? But we did. I remember her. Well, now she is the Plant Manager at the plant we both worked at together. Imagine that. I know Plant Managers were making over a million dollars a year over 30 years ago so I can't even guess what she is making now.

I wouldn't have believed it myself if I hadn't seen it with my own two eyes. And I had the same opportunities she had and never really made nothing of myself.

Can't look back I guess?

But just so everyone knows, stuff like this can happen.

Gloria Georger

Plant Manager At Chicago Stamping Plant

When Gloria Georger stopped before what looked like massive rolls of duct tape, so did her entourage of mostly male middle managers.

"Not everyone likes to come in here and work in the noisy, oily environment that we have," Georger said above the din of crashing metal. As if part of a synchronized dance, giant robotic presses were hammering the rolls of steel into automobile doors, hoods and fenders.

Georger took over as manager of Ford Motor Co.'s stamping plant in Chicago Heights three and a half years ago, becoming one of five female managers at the automaker's 27 plants in the U.S. Ford's South Side assembly plant also is headed by a woman, Jan Allman, who was named to that post a year ago.
