    Yeah we have one for a building of 100+ people. I wonder how many we would’ve needed 50 years ago.

      It would depend upon the type of business. Modern office buildings filled with “information workers” weren’t a thing 50 years ago so it is kind of difficult to compare.

        You’d be surprised! We already had banks, insurances, newspapers and other kinds of information businesses. They did employ a huge lot of secretaries.
