Today is #InvisibleWorkDay, raising awareness of the invisible, unpaid labor done within the home/family or in workplaces. Very often by women.

On this day I'd like to note that there's an entire folktale type dedicated to this. In these tales a husband accuses his wife of "staying comfortably at home all day" while he works, so she suggests they swap for a day.

He learns very fast that caring for the household, children, animals, and food, is a full time job.
