“When I was young I never expected to be rich as to have a motor car, or so poor that we wouldn’t have servants.”
-Agatha ChristieReport
I wonder who the target audience was for this comic back when it was originally published. Doesn’t seem like a topic with a mass audience in mind. If anything it is probably more common now to have someone come in once or twice a week to clean.Report
From the late 18th century to the early 20th century, nearly every middle class household could afford a live in servant. Many could afford more than one servant. Being a servant used to be one of the largest occupation categories.Report

Probably the subject of one of Briggs home life pieces. “Honey, I’m home, you won’t guess what the boss said about me to his chums today!”Report
