Paleolithic Hoe 

A woman who is treated fairly and with respect by coworkers.

Referring to Paleolithic times(~12000BCE) when men cared for animals and women tended crops with a hoe. The invention of the plow required men to do "heavy work" and an animal to pull. This in turn changed the roles to males providing for the family, while women raised the family, creating the first gender inequality.

Sam: "Hard to believe, but she said the work environment is so much better."
Dave: "They must have made her a paleolithic hoe."

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
