No letters

I do not recall ever writing any letters to the weather girl or the teacher, especially not Miss Marken. I heard that the mothers were angry with her but, really, who cares what wicked witch mothers think. Of course if you are a state certified teacher and/or nurse with U.S. citizenship it is fairly easy for you to fend off the claws of the wicked witch mothers whenever they stage their little turnabouts and strikes and demonstrations protesting that the delinquency of their sons should not be reprimanded in any way. At least the embassy has a record of your identity in case your body is found in some forgotten corner torn to pieces. For an uncertified maid it is much less possible to avoid getting fired if the son or daughter turns or tells on you. I personally would not put so much faith in dusting and mopping skills as anyone can do that if they have to. Employment as a maid is really not any way to get ahead socially in today's economy. If that is what you were expecting you will be sorely disappointed.
