No food stamps or welfare for this Lady.
"And then there are people like 93-year old Elinor Otto, who works in the same place she did 71 years ago. Otto works in production for the Boeing Company in their assembly plants in California......
Her streak with Boeing has not been without interruptions; after World War II, she briefly tried office work but found it unappealing. And her pay has also increased as well, from 65 cents an hour in the 40s to the roughly $38 an hour she makes now......
The work ethic of one of the original "Rosie the Riveter" girls -- the nickname given to women who worked in factories during World War II -- is also still intact. Each day she gets up at 4 AM for her job at the plant in Long Beach, Calif. And even though her colleagues see her as an inspiration, she doesn't see anything spectacular about her story."
