I've heard of that, but if you're not careful, it can throw some nasty exceptions on the floor.

 You don't need a programming interface. You need to give her an ultimatum - work or get lost. I'm assuming she's not home taking care of children or is in some state physically preventing her from working.

The member function GoToWork is an ultimatum. It's declared as:
unsigned int GoToWork() throw(std::piss_off);
If you call that method (which indeed is declared to return an unsigned integer - a positive amount of money) but it throws the listed exception, your best shot is to not handle it, but as any good code that don't know what to do with it, just pass it on...

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

I am still waiting for Wife.GoToWork() to be fully implemented.
In the meantime I am stuck with Wife.GoToUNI().
It calls:
UNI.Fees()
UNI.Books()
Car.GetMorePetrol()
Baby.Daycare()
Kids.AfterSchoolCare()
When I call Dad.Home() I find that Wife.HasEnergy() returns 0 so I need to call
Baby.CheckNappy() - this is very poorly written - it leaks and occasionally throws an exception.

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)

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.
