If you've been having
“maid trouble,” here’s
a May to eure it . . .
A national illustrated magazine
recently presenter! an article
about perfected standards for the
working hours and living condi
tions of domestic employees.
1 have said many times that
those who have chronic “servant
trouble" have their own bad man
ners to blame. As a matter of fact,
no test of a lady is more accurate
than the courtesy she shows at
home.
One who is inconsiderate or
overliearing has forgotten that in
the "code of a lady” no obligation
is greater than thoughtful con
sideration for the well-being of
those who are sheltered beneath
her roof.
We all know that ill these
past war years homeowner*,
no less than hotel and restau
rant proprietors, have had a
very unhappy time of it. In all
branches of domestic skill thou
sands of women, inspired by
patriotism, the appeal of greater
freedom and the much fat ter pay en
velopes, went towork inwarplants.
Getting Time Off
Now, of course, the patriotic
motive is past. Free time — to the
extent of having it turned on with
the blowing of a whistle — was a
greater certainty than time off for
an employee working in a house
hold.
However, out of every pay
envelope must be deducted rent,
food, light, heat, sundry household
supplies and possibly daily trans
portation — all of which leaves a
balance of just about nothing! In
contrast, the domestic employee,
paying for not one of these "neces
sities,” has her whole pay check to
spend —or to save—as she chooses.
A very real disadvantage to the
domestic employee is the inex
plicable opprobrium cast upon the
word “servant”—an attitude that
is definitely undemocratic. When
applied to a person of intelligence,
education and refinement, its im
plication of the lack of these quali
fications is certainly unfair.
It is shockingly discourteous to
one who is no longer young to have
to be called by her first name by
everyone, including the butcher
boy.
Uses Last Name
At the present time when the
whole world is using first names
(not even our president is held
above this familiarity), this might
go into reverse. There is an actual
example in New England, where a
young inheritor of an old place is
called "Johnny” by his elderly
cook and handy man. whom he in
turn addresses as “Mrs. Brown”
and “Mr. Brown.”
The remaining disadvantage, too
often encountered, is the indefioite
amount of work. In every well-run
house a schedule not only must be
made, but also adhered to. One
pair of hands can do only so much
and there are so many hours to
do it in.
All too often the employer who
means well and who even “thinks
the world of” Nora will impose
on her. This is what 1 mean:
Mrs. Employer will exclaim,
“Oh, Nora, would you mind ter
ribly staying with the children
tonight? Mrs. Jones wants us to
come over.”
A long time ahead she could
have asked: “Nora, would you
mind taking Wednesday or any
other day the week of the
twenty-third?” But the attitude
of counting on Nora’s generosity
shows a lack of consideration which
thoughtless employers exhibit more
often than they realize.
