"Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin'...."

To be fair, servants in Shakespeare's day worked a LOT longer than 9 to 5, but the "what a way to make a living'" part is still very applicable.  

Who are the servants in the Shakespeare canon? What are the different levels of servitude?  And what purpose do they serve??  In this episode, we discuss all the characters that sweat and serve and attend and wait (on people).  

Wench!!! Bring me my drink, my pipe, and my slippers!!!!

(Oh wait, that's right... we have no servants. Sigh.)
