In fact letting somebody else pick up my plate (read my mom or my sis) actually feels so bad.<br /><br />grow up man, these workers over here are not your mom, she does it for you becoz its her love for you, ofcourse then its ur duty to do it urself,please don't degrade it by comparing it to the workers over here.<br /><br />for gods sake they are being paid for it,its their job to do work, they are not hired for standing idle.<br /><br />> I think the first lesson of feminism should start right at home may be? :P I hope when our generation starts their families, they teach their children the right attitude.<br /><br />come on man what do you want our generation to teach to our children.<br /># hire a worker, pay him, and then go and work on his place.<br />#get a sweeper, and then give him a sofa and television to watch, and sweep the house on your own.<br />whatever the hell you want better keep it to urself, becoz no one else would like their children to do the job for which someone else is being paidAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6209068.post-1091303544820781612004-08-01T01:22:00.000+05:302004-08-01T01:22:00.000+05:30my roommate was doing a project in summers . he fo...my roommate was doing a project in summers . he found that on an average food wastage per day is 800 kg. per mess.We should think atleast twice before wasting food .<br />I have also changed my habbit and whatever i take i finish nehow.<br />ashishAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6209068.post-1086778268956378672004-06-09T16:21:00.000+05:302004-06-09T16:21:00.000+05:30I never thought about this aspect.... throwing foo...I never thought about this aspect.... throwing food actually does make an impact.<br /><br />I tried persuading people not to waste food in the mess... and they come up with answers like - "It's so fucking pathetic - not worth eating"...
