Judy Evans @LadyDuck I did see that. I'm a bit amazed that Sarah needed to ask Epstein for money. I would have thought she had enough money of her own but apparently not.

I don’t often eat out because there is nowhere, but nowhere, that I find acceptable in our part of the world. Disappointment follows disappointment. But today we risked going out to a Japanese restaurant that always gets full...

The photo has nothing to do with the post. I read a very interesting article the other day on ‘weaponised incompetence’. This is when one person avoids or refuses to do a task by saying they’re not good at it. They use their...

Judy Evans It was the accepted way of life once. Women bore the brunt of housework and child-raising and men worked and brought in the money. Things have changed a bit since then.

Judy Evans @crossbones27 I just mentioned to The Horse that 'work ethic' is being phased out of the language. I think 'decent' might be on the way out too.

Judy Evans 'Weaponsied incompetence' has come into the vocabulary and 'work ethic' is quickly becoming a thing of the past.

Judy Evans I think it depends a bit on if they're happy with how the tasks are divided. If one isn't happy, then they're probably resentful and a bit upset from time to time.

Judy Evans It's interesting, isn't it? I can see myself 'people watching' with this in mind. I often said our sons as boys would do things badly so they wouldn't get asked again. It didn't have a name back then.
