Is the SAHM the new status symbol?
| Tue, 09-23-2003 - 10:36pm |
In the 70's and 80's women fought to get into the workforce (the whole Ms. magazine generation)...and then the tide turned in the late 1990's when more women started to stay home by choice. Now, it seems like being a SAHM is a status symbol....and superior to being a working mom.

Why is it okay for you to be contemptuous of garbage collection, but not for islim to be less than enamored of waiting tables?

I know both the Marriott properties I've stayed at in Manhattan (Marquis and Financial Center) have that policy, as does the SohoGrand. In Boston, the Swissotel has that policy (but my experience is limited there as my only other stay in Boston was long term and we were in corporate apartments). In Atlanta, we stayed in another "apartment hotel" property, and they, too had the policy of changing sheets only once a week, unless you requested service more frequently and they'd only change towels if you put your used towels on the floor of the bathroom; if you hung them back up, this indicated to them you didn't require them to be changed.
