I was telling a good friend a little while ago that I had just instructed one of the "men of the house" in how to use the washing machine. Now, in all honesty, you'd think that someone who has been showing me the ins and outs of my new digital camera should be able to figure out a simple washing machine. I'd think so.
Compare how many basic cycles in the washing machine? Two, or three, with only two or three other factors at most. Honestly, what's the big deal. Do you know how many "functions" my camera has?
For some reason, even the most mechanical men find washing machines beyond their comprehension, while women can figure anything out.
Why else would office managers be women? Who else can figure out how to get the paper out which was stuck in the photocopy machine? What other employee can learn the quirks of the various machinery and know when it's time to call the technician instead of taking it apart on one's own?
And yes, I'll figure out the camera. Just give me a little time.
