A martinet is a soldier, usually an officer who is a taskmaster never bending the rules. A disciplinarian. Unlike Rita who always bends the rules for herself.
The same has happened every year since I was a kid- and that was way back in the 1960’s. It’s nothing new, yet every year people seem to think it’s a recent trend. We really do paint the past in brighter colors.
love the vocabulary….According to dictionary.com mar·ti·net /ˌmɑrtnˈɛt, ˈmɑrtnˌɛt/ [mahr-tn-et, mahr-tn-et] noun 1. a strict disciplinarian, especially a military one. 2. someone who stubbornly adheres to methods or rules.
Rita stubbornly adheres to her methods and rules. She believes that her rules are law.

Truthfully it just seems like Turkey day came just way too fast this year. But luckily Maria does have a thanksgiving gag.
