I recently hired a young woman to come in and do my floors, which I am unable to do for health reasons. I don't work outside the home, I look as healthy as anyone else, but I am prone to migraines which debillitate me. All that said, although I have legitimate reasons to hire someone, it feels very strange to have someone doing my dirty work. (I clean the bathrooms -- except tubs and showers --, I do my own laundry and dusting, etc. ) Yet I have to keep telling myself that I didn't yank someone off the street and make them a slave. I found the name of a woman who was looking for work to supplement the family income. But I feel sorry for her. I think maybe the greatest weirdness comes from the fact that she and I come from the same socio-economic life.
