Mom's Salary

This is for all of you hard working moms. No surprise that so much is overtime pay. What do you think?

Justin Taylor posted something similar on his blog last year and I thought it was pretty good:

"If the typical stay-at-home mother in the United States were paid for her work as a housekeeper, cook and psychologist among other roles, she would earn $138,095 a year, according to research released on Wednesday. . . .The 10 jobs listed as comprising a mother's work were housekeeper, cook, day care center teacher, laundry machine operator, van driver, facilities manager, janitor, computer operator, chief executive officer and psychologist, it said. The typical mother puts in a 92-hour work week, it said, working 40 hours at base pay and 52 hours overtime."

We are all indebted to our moms!
