I ate some delicious brownies and I thought to myself, "Why don't my brownies turn out that good?" I looked up brownies on the computer and along with recipes, I discovered that a brownie is a mythical creature. Who knew?
According to Steve at the Mythical Creature A Day blog, "A brownie is a type of folklore creature that usually inhabits houses, performing a variety of different types of chores in exchange for small gifts or food. They do not like being seen and will typically only work at night and live in unused parts of the house. They reportedly love porridge and are considered good natured."
I recently attended a march in San Francisco to help hotel workers get a decent wage. If I was the hotel manager, I wouldn't deal with the workers. I would fire them and hire some brownies. The brownies would work all night cleaning up after the guests and I'm sure porridge and honey are cheaper than minimum wage.
So, my advice to hotel managers and managers in general, hire some brownies. But be careful, these are not the kind you eat!

I have only one concern with these brownies. If any employers take your advice, hundreds, possibly thousands, of people will be left jobless. This is already an occurring problem in the United States. Workers are being replaced by machines and technology. For example, FasTrak, although very convenient, takes needed jobs away from people, leaving them to search for jobs in a time where fair work is scarce. Maybe they don't like being seen because people get mad at them for taking their jobs. Just a thought.

That's a very interesting thought. I bet the brownies couldn't care less about not getting paid virtually anything either (As long as they get their purage). You'd save a lot of money and you wouldn't hear any winning. It's a great idea.

Just a thought...
ReplyDeleteWhy did you go to a workers' rights march if you would rather have the workers be fired?
The ideal hotel manager you have described above is parallel to how many American employers and how they employ illegal immigrants to work for them while the workers earn next to nothing.
I dunno... it sells itself.
My, my. Brownies are just so useful nowadays aren't they?
