It is a great parody on how while technology and work culture has changed since the early sixties. Although the point of the video is how some alarming things still haven’t changed when it comes to women in the work force and equal opportunity.
I love Christina in this video and her parody will certainly make you laugh and think harder about where we are today.  Love the bit regarding what a fax is too 🙂
