One Hundred Years Ago. Women's lives in Britain in the First World War - and other things. Sunday, 31 May 2015. Women as Shop Commissionaires. From the Daily Record, 31st May 1915. WOMEN AND MEN’S WORK. In the West End yesterday I noticed that at some of the big emporiums women are now being employed as door porters or commissionaires.
