I have a friend from India. His wife can not read or write. He often does
not live with his family as he has to move elsewhere in order to get a job.
And jobs there are not like jobs here. He has worked for 3 months in order
to prove himself only to find that they don't want him and he gets no pay.
Seemingly they can get away with pretty much anything there. They have no
maid.
