Default apparently hitler was a great boss

She may be the only person in the world to remember him fondly, but a woman who worked as a maid for Adolf Hitler in the '30s says he was "a great boss," the Daily Mail reports.

"He was a charming man, someone who was only ever nice to me, a great boss to work for," Rosa Mitterer, 91, told the Mail of the murderous dictator. "You can say what you like, but he was a good man to us."

Mitterer, who worked at Hitler's Bavarian mountain retreat alongside her sister Anni before the start of World War II, said she only knew him as a kind employer.

"I remember so clearly the first day I spoke to him in the kitchen," Mitterer told the Daily Mail. "I said I was Anni's sister and that made him smile, because Anni was his favorite. I only ever knew Hitler as a kindly man who was good to me."

Mitterer's duties included sorting thousands of letters sent to the home, and feeding the dogs. Hitler also ordered Mitterer and her sister to attend church on a regular basis.

"I didn't have to be a Nazi party member or anything," Mitterer told the Mail. "After a while I relaxed a bit. Apparently it was Hitler's orders that Anni and I be taken to church every Sunday because he thought this would be 'good for us.'"

After the war, Mitterer was forced to confront the reality of the Holocaust and the reality of the man she worked for voluntarily.

"That he had ordered such terrible things, I just couldn't believe it," Mitterer told the Daily Mail.

"Hitler, a dictator, a mass murderer, a great boss."


:rofl: Wow. I found this picture of Hitler as a child. Can you guess which one is him?

If you guessed the top right boy with a pissed off look on his face, you were correct. :rofl:


Edit:
Their father, Alois, was a hard, conscientious Customs Official, punctilious to a fault with a difficult temper that flared with no apparent provocation. Paula later recalled how Adolf bore the brunt of the father's discipline:
"Adolf challenged my father to extreme harshness and got his sound thrashing every day. He was a scrubby little rogue, and all attempts of his father to thrash him for his rudeness and to cause him to love the profession of an official of the state were in vain. How often on the other hand did my mother caress him and try to obtain with her kindness where the father could not succeed with harshness ..."
So, if your kid gets pictures taken with angry expressions, you beat your kid, and they are great bosses, they may turn out to be Hitler.

marshy if you understood his childhood even remotely you would understand the pissed off look


and im sure he was a great guy to work for as long as you werent a jew or jew sympathiser. or conspiring against him

i've always said hitler was a genius, a psychotic genius but a genius none the less. the man conquered europe ... he did things others only dreamed of. it was only his obsessions that got in the way of him winning.

Yeah don't really know his childhood much.

And yeah, Hitler was an absolute genius. There is a fine fine line between genius and insanity.

German family member of mine for sent to Paris during the war and worked there for some company or other... she said it wasn't too bad.

Apparently she was a server for the officers and stuff like that and one of the officers grabbed her ass, so she slapped him in the face. She got reassigned to a different job that didn't require getting macked on :chuckles:

maybe you would

as a blonde haired blue eyed german descendant it doesnt really scare me ... my day to day would most likely be the same with some minor differences

not to mention hitler never intended to take the US ... he intended to turn europe into the utopian third reich and leave the US to be, until that was japan attacked and we were drawn in. hitler had no interest in outright warfare with the US

so either way i feel safe h:
