Well, back in my day, knowing how to type meant you had a job skill. Things changed, however, in those passing years. As my 4 nieces grew up and were in high school, I counseled them to learn to type but never put it on their resumes. For young women new to careers nowadays, it seems to have a stigma that consigns them to the secretarial pool for all time.
