Ideal for: Any woman who happens to be married to a
tanner and has absolutely no ambition of her own.
Job Specifications: You are the devoted wife of the
tanner, and your duties include doing your husband’s laundry. Unfortunately,
your husband’s work with decomposing cow flesh makes that task unpleasant to
say the least…especially when it’s mixed in with the pungent smell of sweat
and coagulated blood.
Drawbacks: It’ll be several centuries before the washing machine was
invented, so you’ll be scrubbing that guck off yourself, thank you. Aaah,
the fragrant aroma of day-old blood, fermented feces and human sweat! Be
sure to change the water frequently, as you’ll find bits of cow fat and
entrails floating up through the suds.
Perks. At least your husband’s got a steady job, and with the state his
clothes are in, it’s highly unlikely that he’ll be having any romantic
rendezvous at the office.
