I once worked for a small investment-management firm that probably would have fallen apart within days if its secretarial staff left, but could have run almost indefinitely without its officers. Why? Guess who did all the work, and guess who knew all the facts? All the (male) officers were good for was PR, and oppressing the (female) staff. I ended up resigning after a particularly unfair instance of the latter. I never did quite understand why these women ended up saving their boss's ass so many times with so little in return. But it was clear they were the real `brains' of the operation. -Ed
