I have to admit, I don't really watch the show very religiously. I was watching the New York version the other day, and it seemed LuAnn (the Countess) and Jill both didn't work. Bethenny (the single girl) works as a chef? And Ramona has a job (but unclear what she does)?

How many hours in a day could household chores and cooking possibly take up in a day, and for how many days of the week? I've been off all week, and honestly, you don't do that much cleaning/cooking in a 40-hour work week!
