Ugh. I'm sorry someone talked to you like that, Sarah.

It's one's attitude in life and how she chooses to spend time that really matters.

A woman's payroll record could say "40 hours," but it does not mean that her day has been more productive than that of a stay-at-home mom.

For example, which of the below had the most productive use of time from noon to 1230 p.m. :

a). A stay-at-home mom who cooked healthy food for her little ones and taught them manners;

or

b). A working woman who spent that time intruding into her co-worker's personal email (since the co-worker went to lunch without signing out of her account...bad idea ), and gossiping about her in the break room.

It's not what one does for living, but the way she lives that really matters.
