You will find that Wife.GoToWork() causes Wife.WentToWork() to return true.
Also, the private variable Wife.TooTiredforSex will often be true after a call to Wife.GoToWork() and Wife.WentToWork() have returned success.
As there is no callback or interrupt handler for detecting this private property to be false, you must constantly call Wife.CanWeHaveSexNow() until the property Wife.TooTiredforSex has gone false. Sometimes Wife.SleptAllNight() will return true at the same time as Wife.TooTiredforSex has gone false.

Problem is most times Wife.TooTiredForSex is false at the same time as Dad.AtWork is true. 
Maybe I should call Dad.TakeASickDay() and hope for the best.... ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Sadly, in my experience, GoToWork() is a very poorly written and resource hungry function, which seems always implimented to return void.

unsigned int GoToWork() throw(std::piss_off);
I frequently throw the same exception, although sometimes it is thrown back recursively. Regardless of how it is caught, the firmware suffers and resources shrink. Finally, the dreaded blue-screen-of-death pops up just as the system goes down.
In my personal experience, though, I have received compiler warnings when using the unsigned int. Apparently, whether the call goes through or not, the return value can still be negative. Putting a break point on max(iIncoming, iSpent) will reveal why. In such cases, consider calling Wife.Dispose().

I did that one... I ran the Wife.GivesBirth() method.
After she relaized that she had to then run the Wife.WatchesCartoonsAllDay(), Wife.FeedsChild(), and Wide.NoOneToTalkToAllDay(true) methods she was willing to jump right back into the work force

I have wondered whether you could get a sim card type thing that you carry around or via your cell-phone that lets expresso and other coffee machines to know what your preferences are. When you have a dissatisfactory experience from a machine you could let it know as well.

In many cases you can already program these. For about $30 (and up) you can get one of those nifty thermostats that allow you to program different temperatures for different times of the day.
I suppose it's only a matter of time before that bad boy gets an IP address and you can program it from your computer. But then, it wouldn't be long before the virus writers took advantage of this and wrote a "deep freeze" virus...

That's not programming! I want something that has an ActiveX control, and about 100 API functions so that I can tie in the next 2 years of weather forcasts and program it to answer my wireless cell connection so that I can set the thermostat.
Oh, and it should have API functions so that I can query the amount of oil left in the tank (I live in New England) and query the stock market so I can figure out when is the best time to buy heating oil.
Now, why the hell hasn't somebody done this????

And it should be able to figure out when an ice storm is about to happen, and safely shut down all computing equipment before the power goes out.

My friend has a house at a small vilage.
The house has a fire place, aircontition and central heating.
This friday night we went there, sleep for 6 hours and the morning went to the nearby ski center.
The house was VERY cool so the only option was to put on the air contition and we sleep on the living room.
Now, if only we could turn on the central heating or the aircontition remotly 2-3 hours before

The house was cool and you put on the AC??? Brrrr.
(Must be a US slang, as air conditioning means cooling. Never understood why though. It certainly doesn't "condition" the air, except to cool it, remove moisture, and put pollutants from clogged air filters into the air).

I'm the sucker that put "bathroom exhaust fan". It would be swell to have a sensor or some AI on it so you could program it to automatically turn on when it senses moisture, foul odors, etc. and shut off when they have been dissipated.

Probably not. Like the one who wrote
My wife. I'd like to extend her by creating a GoesToWork class.
Before invoking the attach method, you should have learned whether the GoesToWork method was inherited from a parent
