Mom's Salary

This report by Salary.com says that if stay at home mom's were paid business type salaries for the kind of work they perform, they'd be making well over 6 figures in annual salary. They based this figure by counting the approximate number of hours stay at home mom's spend doing a chore and comparing that task to a REAL job. I think the whole concept of comparing household chores to an actual job is pretty stupid. Allow me to demonstrate; I am going to compare some of the tasks that a typical single male like myself performs to actual jobs and lets see how much money I should make on top of my regular job.

TaskHours / weekComparable Job
Driving to and from work10NASCAR Driver
Deciding what fast food to eat5CEO
Watching TV10TV Critic
Surfing internet porn5Software Engineer
Checking out girls5Market Analyst
Playing Sports/Excercising10Professional Athelete


So, by my estimate, I should be getting paid a 7 figure salary on top of what I get paid at work. Heh.

Moral of the story:
Women, shut your whining and go make me some pie!
