Custom Knick Knack

What was the Barby Doll in Sarah Palin's office about?

I went with my nephew (a lobbyist) when he made a business call on Sarah Palin during her partial term as gov. of Alaska. When we went into the outer office, my nephew said 'Great!" and told the receptionist that he wanted to see the Gov. He was shown right in.

I asked him later how he knew that she would see him right away and he told me that there was a Barby Doll on a knick-knack shelf. If it was standing, the Gov. was available, if it was reclining she was busy, and if it wasn't there, she was out. He said it was a custom from Skagway, but didn;t explain. Does anybody know the origin of this cute custom?

carmenlafond almost has it.

At houses of ill repute (like the Red Onion), each prostitute was represented by a doll behind the bar. If the doll was not there, that particular prostitute was unavailable. If it was laying down, she was with a john, and if it was standing, she was open for immediate business.

This little device was known to all the regular lobbyists and other seekers, but Palin's staff never told her about it as far as is known.
