American work ethic

I completely agree that MM can't win, but I think that one might be more a culture clash than work ethic per se. Americans tend to have a very different sense of when an average working day should begin and end, and when normal waking up times and bed times should be. That said, it should be up to her staff to fit round her, and if they weren't willing to, you have to ask why....

Because this isn't the 18th century and servants aren't indentured with no fucking rights. She wakes up at 5am, if she expects her staff to be there for it then for them it's a 4am wake up or earlier if they’re commuting. Why should they do that?

...because it's their job? and the work hours should be in their job contract and they should be being properly recompensed for that? and if early hours are a problem for some workers, then staff should be hired that are also early birds?

SA Plus 'American work ethic' my arse. Lots of people have strong work ethics of all nations including the UK.
