You Wouldn't Want to Be a Victorian Servant!: A Thankless Job You'd Rather Not Have

You (the reader) are a bright, 12-year-old girl. In 1885 there aren't many employment choices. You could choose to be a farmhand, shop assistant or factory worker. Your family thinks you should be a servant, but the pay is bad, the hours are long and there's not much personal freedom.
