Friday, December 17, 1965 The Frances Hubbard Diaries

Friday, December 17, 1965
I washed.  Clifton worked at Oneonta as an oiler.  David here in pm and Wayne went Christmas shopping.  Clifton, the girls and I went to Christmas program at church at night.  I wrote Christmas cards and got Ell Mae's package ready.  Made fruit cake for Mayo's.
Comment:  I guess Dad went to work at a lower rate than an Operator just to have the work...rather than operate the machine, an oiler starts it, lubricates it, shuts it down and generally watches over it while it is operating...still a union job and also pays pretty well.  

No comments:

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
