3. Yes
I'd prefer one who was young and brawny with penchant for going shirtless, however.

7. no
My husband and I have this hypothetical conversation all the time because he would LOVE to have a butler. I just can't stand the idea of having someone I don't love living in my house. I'm afraid I would never be comfortable.

8. what if it was a robot?
Robots don't judge and they don't react to seeing you half dressed.

9. a robot butler would be good
I wouldn't feel the need to treat the robot like family and constantly worry if I'm paying him enough or providing good enough benefits.

19. oh I'm a big fan of unions....
I have no issues with providing the minimum, but how do you live with someone and only provide the minimum, you know? That would be hard.

12. I've always wanted a butler. One with a good "Rule Britannia" name, like "Tillingsworth".
"Some more coffee please, Tillingsworth."

"Veddy good, sir."

"Excellent scrambled eggs, Tillingsworth".

"I try to give satisfaction, sir."

"That will be all, Tillingsworth."

"A most warm good evening to you, sir."

"And you, Tillingsworth. Good night."




What fun... B-)
