Anne Stephens, wife of tax preparer Ted Stephens, complained bitterly this week about her husband's lack of effort in preparing dinner for their family of four despite the fact that he spends January through March each year preparing tax returns for other American families. In an interview Anne said the following "Ted is basically a decent guy. I mean he's no Brad Pitt in the looks department, and he's not exactly the most interesting guy to talk to or be around, but he makes OK money as a tax preparer for H&R block, and he has always been faithful, and mostly good to me. And I can't say he hasn't provided for our family, but I can say he leaves much to be desired in the preparing dinner department. In fact I can't remember the last time he prepared dinner for the family, me, or even for himself. He just never prepares dinner, even though he clearly is able to prepare things as evidenced by his job which requires him to prepare tax returns four months out the year." Reached for comment Ted responded "So I'm lazy, what are you gonna do."
