Some of my favorite parts are:
3. General experience indicates that "husky" girls - those who are just a little on the heavy side - are more even tempered and efficient than their underweight sisters.
6. Give the female employee a definite day-long schedule of duties so that they'll keep busy without bothering the management for instructions every few minutes. Numerous properties say that women make excellent workers when they have their jobs cut out for them, but that they lack initiative in finding work themselves.
8. Give every girl an adequate number of rest periods during the day. You have to make allowances for feminine psychology. A girl has more confidence and is more efficient if she can keep her hair tidied, apply fresh lipstick and wash her hands several times a day.
Seriously - if I haven't washed my hands AT LEAST 10 times, I don't get anything done.
So this article made me do a quick search on the famous "How to be a Good Housewife" article.

According to this article, I'm an awful housewife! Haha... I definitely don't make dinner (unless cereal counts!) and I don't see to it that The Mr can relax for the evening. Ha!
How many of you make good housewives or employees? The only good thing for me in the employee guide is that I'm a young married woman. Apparently that makes me less likely to flirt and gives me the need to work.

I just took a graduate level HR class and I'm pretty sure a good portion of the curriculum was based around those same 11 Factors from Western Properties. Good of you to point that out, though. Sometimes irrational women forget that there are rules in the workplace.
Articles like these always make me both laugh and cringe... And acknowledge that I completely FAIL as a good worker/housewife/etc by these criteria!
Is there a good husband's guide? I would like to tape it to my fridge :)
This article makes me giggle - and makes me happy I was born after these types of rules!
Based on the articles, I make a shitty hosuewise and employee. Based on real life, I rock at both.
Yeah, I pretty much fail.
This is so funny. My favorite part was "Remember, his topics of conversation are more important than yours."
I sent the link to my husband...which I sort of regret now. He's never going to let me live it down.
