In a world of businessmen, she boldly applied for a challenging job at the Western Union Telegraph Company. She was told a woman could never learn the Morse Code (then, the first of text messaging, even though a complicated series of dots and dashes) and was denied an application. With grit and determination, she asked for the study materials and returned to pass the test and became the first WOMAN telegraph operator and eventually owned her own successful business, all by herself!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/2teletypeoperator_edit.png\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8248 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/2teletypeoperator_edit.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/2teletypeoperator_edit.png 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/2teletypeoperator_edit-300x150.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/spacer2.png\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4748 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/spacer2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"10\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/spacer2.png 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/spacer2-300x5.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We have certainly come a long since then in every way and thank goodness you don&#8217;t have to write an essay in Morse Code, but with the ease of a computer with spell check and a portal to all the information in the world.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3womanwriting_edit.png\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8249 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3womanwriting_edit.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3womanwriting_edit.png 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3womanwriting_edit-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/spacer2.png\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4748 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/spacer2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"10\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/spacer2.png 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/spacer2-300x5.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We encourage you to become all you can be and thinking of innovative ways to use space is a theme that is important to our business and our lives, whether it is the white space when designing a website or painting a picture, or the space between a window, the space within a computer chip, the space of an outdoor deck or even the space of the future-really any space that intrigues you.
