Headline in the
New York Times this morning:
"Trickledown Downsizing: With Their
Employers Cutting Costs, Domestic Workers Suffer" (with an over-the-top illustration of a uniformed maid with tears streaming down her cheek).
In the
Journal:
"When the Going Gets Tough, Some People Lay Off the Nanny" (with an over-the top discussion
topic, "Have you started to do more household tasks yourself, in light of the economic downturn?" No comments were posted as of 8:21:42 EST).
The
Journal also
reports that Costco is expected to indicate its upper-end customers are spending less when it reports its earnings today.
