Thank you for this answer. I have not read/seen manga/anime for many years, but thinking
about those I remember, and especially about the summaries on Hitoshi's site, I cannot
think of even one office lady character.

 I found
 
 As women have
 stopped getting married, and so not dropping out of the
 work force, the number of older OL has
 increased. There is also an
 increasing
 number of married women returning to, or never leaving, the
 work
 force.

 (50% of females 15+)
 
 So
 there is a full age range of OL :). The young OL just get
 the vast
 majority of the attention. You
 will notice that the link provided on
 the
 wikipeida page is 20 years old.
