| Comment | but it's fairly strong to call it asinine when it's clearly a difference in values, and mine being those many, many people (especially, I would say, in Scotland) have been brought up with - if you're able-bodied, you clean up after yourself, and it isn't a responsibility you can derogate. In the same respect as at nursery school you are taught to put your toys away in their box, and not to give your milk to Jack to do it for you
if my mother was visiting and a cleaner turned up, she would be absolutely mortified, politely escort them away (ensuring they'd been paid, of course) and then give me a clip round the ear and hand me a mop
I think it's a fascinating subject, because it's clearly something that divides strongly across social and possibly generational lines |
