  • Learning to serve as a certified butler is both a skill and an art, and the world’s most elite butlers come from one place: The International Butler Academy in Simpelveld, Netherlands. Here, students spend 10 weeks in intensive training, living and working in a 135-room mansion where they learn everything from how to drive an armored car to napkin folding. Ready your coattails, we're going to butler school.

We had to be able to predict whether the ball will hit us or the people before/after us, and we had to defend oursleves or just keep running without reaction. It's actually a quite useful exercise, bc now anybody could throw a pen or sth at me in school and I'd catch it without even looking.

    I work as a home health aide. I work in very rush homes and middle class homes. I can tell right away if you have ever had help before from the way you treat me.
    I enjoy the cool detachment that those who have had help treat me more than the overly friendly or overtly hostile way those who have never had help do.
    Those who have had help know that I know how to do my job and they leave me alone to do it. They don't micromanage or nit pick. They tell me what's expected and then leave. It's like dancing with a partner that knows the steps as a apposed to someone who has never danced before. Yes I could carry your end and we can dance awkwardly but it will never be as fluid as it is when both know the steps and do them well

I'm not sure what kind of hours they work though, is it typically a standard 40 hour week? I feel like it wouldn't be quite like that.
    edit: a quick google search has told me that generally they work 60 hour weeks, with one day off, and around 4 weeks vacation a year. To be fair, I was working those kinds of hours when I worked two jobs (one full time one part time), except I didn't have any days off, so it's not TOO bad.
