Ex , . Tis:iid* oifrei
tlaptsy::. as Cashier
What mental Picture do' you get •When you think Of a , trnek
driver?—perhaps a big, dark-haired man, with a five o'clock shadow,
if not actually a beard, grliny: hands, tatooed arms, dressed in a
nondescriptiVe jacket and dirty, unpreSsed pants, ' -
This IS hardly a, good description of. Janet_ Heattin, the pretty
blonde under consideration . . . and although it may be hard to
believe, Janet, before she be
came• a Corner Room cashier,
Used to be a truck ,driver.
All this came about four• years
ago, when Janet's 'older brother
went into the Army. Her father
owns a lumber :Company, and
after • her brother was drafted
someone was needed to . take his
place as driver of .one• of the
trucks.. - •
, • Since Janet's younger brother
,wa.4 too voting to drive, what
could be more natural than that
the job should go to Janet?
So it happened ;that for over
two years she delivered short or
ders of lumber, that is orders in
the vicinity of Martha Yurnade,
which is her home town, 'with ,a
big - six-by-six Army truck..,
Although sh e ; didn't • • dislike
truck driving, when her younger
brother was old enough to drive,
Janet gradually found herself
driving less and less, until fin
ally he took over completely.
She made a big occupational
change arid became a cashier in
the—Corner Room, wbrk which
she enjoys much more than truck
driving.
She has been working •at the
Corner Room for over a year holy,
and has decided that lumber is
much easier to handle than
money. ,
