LOL They used to cram a bunch of them into a room. There was also a secretarial pool which wasn't just a pool of typist who'd be sent out to an office, but was a giant room full of people pounding on noisy typewriters.

That was the standard for jobs like that. It also took a lot more manpower to do stuff like that. So, they crammed them all into a room and let them have at it.
