"under appreciated"

An American epidemic that seems rooted in the over blown self esteem virus usually contracted during the teen years though typically remaining dormant till marriage.


Let me be the first to say the my wife works her arse off, but good grief, its not like everyone else is praised, laid and paid like they should.

Truly, truly, idiotic study.

To reach the projected pay figures, the survey calculated the earning power of the 10 jobs respondents said most closely comprise a mother's role -- housekeeper, day-care teacher, cook, computer operator, laundry machine operator, janitor, facilities manager, van driver, chief executive and psychologist.

What they are doing is called "double-dipping" . They think that a mother that has clothes washing while having a stew cooking on the stove while in an on-line chat room should be paid for laundry machine operator, cook , and computer operator all at the same time. Also, because a nurse makes x amount of dollars for cleaning up a patient that has to use a bed pan does that I should make x amount of dollars for wiping my own butt.

But you are right. It will be on the nightly news without any intelligent thought questioning it.
