This was way before PC and discrimations and shit. Everyone harassed everyone. I myself didn't harass the women, because I just didn't want trouble. The guys, though, that was another matter. Everyone thought I was so professional, stern, and pure business. But after a while they opened up to me, because I knew the context. No one was saying N words to hurt. But joking like that is now long gone.
(BTW that's when we also had calendars of sexy women with tools, from hardware stores).
