Can you seem to manage with one or the other ? if so which one. Is one much more flexible in the duty dept , that the other. for those with both, does it ever get contentious ? or is it more often than not copacetic? Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency.

My 9 year old makes a horrible, whiny, butler, however he's even a worse valet. Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here. Although sometimes distracting, there is often a certain entertainment value to this easy standard. -JALLEN "All I need is a WAR ON DRUGS reference and I got myself a police thread BINGO." -jljones | |||

You are supposed to start the boy off as a footman to get him some experience first.  | |||

Because I am "that guy" a butler is a household manager. More relevant in an era when households had lots of staff. (Even a fairly small house, pre WWII could have 17 staff.) A valet was more or less a housekeeper for a bachelor. | |||

Well... Jeeves was a valet ( actually, a Gentlemans gentleman, but why split hairs) and Jeeves was awesome, so I'd say valet first, and don't worry about. Butler until you have a stately home of wherever.... Bill R | |||

They always wanted tall guys as footmen to impress their guests since they were the first staff encountered. Truth: The New Hate Speech | |||

I'd rather have a harem those house staff. The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC The Dhimocrats love America like ticks love a hound. | |||
