The Home Front During World War I ISource Based1. In Source A it is suggested that when women began to change jobs during World War I, they usually changed for the better. The women who wrote this letter in Source A said she worked in domestic service before the war and that they "hated every minute of it." This implies that she did not like her job as a maid and would have liked it if she could have done something else. When I know that her work during the war changed for the better, she writes that "So when the need for women 'war workers' came, my chance to 'go away' came." This means that when England needed women to help in the war effort while things like the munitions crisis were occurring, she had the option to leave the domestic service job she "hated" and go to another job that she pleases..
