(“You’re just a step on the bossman’s ladder,” Parton croons.)Ĭoncurring with the majority of the world of women workers are filmmakers Camille Hardman and Gary Lane, whose 2022 feature documentary “Still Working 9 to 5” is a rally cry for all females. I hear gripes about many of their less-experienced male counterparts who take home more cash for doing the exact same job. My varied group of badass female boss bitches and friends have been at the near top of their jobs for years, some, decades. It’s akin to what my circles of female comrades do. “Sing it, sister,” nearly every woman who has worked in the past 100 years screams in harmony with the country music icon. “I swear sometimes that man is out to get me” sings Dolly Parton in her 1980 Grammy Award-winning song “9 to 5,” a women’s rights anthem that was inspired by the 1980 film of the same name starring Parton, Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin. And the clock doesn’t just tick from 9 a.m. It’s been 100 years since it was introduced by Alice Paul. While stumping for women’s rights in Virginia, in footage appearing in the new documentary “Still Working 9 to 5,” Lily Tomlin said at a 1977 rally, “The Equal Rights Amendment will put women where they’ve never been before, in the United States Constitution.”
