Years ago, long before the popularity of computers, I took to teasingly calling secretaries qwertyuiops or qwertyuiop [kwer-tee-YOO-ee-op] after the top-line of the typewriter (remember them?) keyboard. To my surprise, I have seen this used, facetiously, in referring to a secretary a couple of times since then. I was just wondering if anybody else has ever used qwertyuiop as slang for secretary or anyone else who labors over letter keyboards, or ever heard it used that way?
