Staffing The Manor. Part 1

  In this two part series, I will impart all you need to know to staff your home. An efficient, loyal and well scrubbbed staff is the warp and the woof of gracious living.  And the proper butler is the foundation upon which your gracious home is built.
    "Smoothstar" you may ask, "What makes a proper butler?"  I like a cadaverous visage that belies a keen intelligence and  vicious temperament. He or she (butlering is not just for men) must be able  to run your staff like a marine drill sargent, but serve you like a samurai. I demand loyalty above all else and so should you. The butler sets the tone.What do you know about engaging a maid or a cook,a gardener or a chaufer? That's right,nothing. That's your butler's job.
        Tomorrow, we'll  flesh it out.
