Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Office Lady is a Gratuitous English Japanese term—often abbreviated "OL"—for a low-level female employee in a corporate setting. Although she may have higher aspirations, the sexist atmosphere of the usual Japanese corporation frequently conspires to keep her fetching tea, fending off sexual harassment, and forever clinging to the bottom rung of the office ladder. The Western equivalent would be the "glass ceiling". Traditionally, the "office flower" was selected for being attractive and gracious to clients, and expected to only work for a few years (just long enough to meet a nice young executive to marry), so it was not considered a "real" career. Some companies actually have OLs on separate career tracks than the real employees—and give female hires a choice which track they want to be on. |
