I should get myself a wife

In my new job, I almost exclusively work with men. I directly work for men only a couple of years away from retirement. They are all great and treat me like a full member of the team (despite me being inexperienced yet). Some of them are quite workaholics. I still struggle a bit with work-life balance, the job is new and exciting.

Yesterday someone brought cake. after people mentioned that it was really good, he said, that all the compliments should go to his wife, she baked it.

When I left work quite late, coming home to my empty apartment I was standing before a big pile of laundry and I was hungry.

I realized that those workaholic coworkers all had lovely wives at home, doing all those things for them. Baking cake, doing laundry, cleaning, cooking...

The thought that came into my head was: I should get myself a wife.

Joke aside, it made me realize that this workaholic lifestyle of those men was only feasible because they have someone that does that work for free. Work, that if I hired someone would be really expensive and probably would still not be as good as "a wife".

Maybe there are men out there, wanting to be a stay-at-home-husband...
