Home on the rage

[j4]

Does anybody know whether a majority of households in the UK include one adult who stays at home during some/all of the working day?

I'm just wondering how to account for the fact that commercial companies always seem to be extremely surprised when I tell them that I can't actually stay in all day, every day, on the offchance that they might turn up, as I have a full-time job.

Even more annoying when you take a day offer and they fail to turn up, they seem surprised that the option of just delivering it on another day isn't totally satisfactory to you.
