[Northshield] Another short persona challenge

[Elyse Boucher]

Greetings from the humble scribe Merouda Pendray.

Friends, I'm back with another simple challenge that
asks you to think about life for your persona. While I
find that the various persona questionnaires sprinkled
about the internet are helpful for pointing out the
details of your persona's life, they feel a bit like a
trivia test rather than a tool, and they don't help me
with the questions I have. These little challenges are
my way of prompting us all to think about it in a
different way. I enjoy reading your responses, and I
thank those who do respond. :-)

Today's challenge:

We have become accustomed to thinking of servants in a
very Victorian and Hollywood way--of maids who clean
and serve, of butlers who prepare our clothing and
answer our doors... Of people who are, in a strange 
way, an accessory to a very tony lifestyle.

But the truth is that we all employ servants on a
daily basis--heck, we live in a service economy. We
don't think of it that way, but we do. As you go
through your day over the next several days, look
around you and think about who you employ as a
servant, even if it's only on an as-needed basis. I'll
start:

Occasionally, I am so pressed for time that I send my
laundry out to be taken care of. Thus, I employ a
servant who will pick it up/drop it off and, of
course, the servants who will actually wash, fold, and
pack the clothes.

In what way do you employ servants? I look forward to
your answers. :-)

Your servant, 
Merouda
