My Mom....

My mom's first job after Barringer '46 was working in downtown Newark for the Pru- 9-5- she made $10.00 a week- had to take the bus and eat @ Woolworths.
She was thrilled and delighted forever to land a job at the Franklin Washington for the princely sum of $18.00 a week working 9-3:30, she could walk to work and eat home for lunch.
The bank president knew all the employees and lived on Roseville Ave.
Thanks for jogging my memory.
