If I am repeating someone, I apologize, but I remember when the Ladies' Room in department stores was a lounge, with makeup mirrors, counters and cushioned chairs.  I also remember needing a dime to unlock the door of a public restroom stall.   

 

It's close to two decades ago, but I will always remember one particular staff meeting I attended.  The youth leader was reporting on the Youth Trip they had just finished.  All went well, but, as a side note, he related that one of the girls wanted to phone home during the trip.  She needed instruction how to dial when she was led to a rotary phone.  Upon hearing this, we staff members sat in stunned silence, exchanging sideways glances, rolled eyes and sheepish grins at the implication of our ages.  


 

@IamMrsG  Macy's and Nordstrom's restrooms are like this here.  Moms breast feed their babies there.
