The following is a list by which submissives may judge (or be judged) as to how useful they are to their Mistress. I developed it based on my own subs activities (most of which they thought up themselves and requested I let them do) and then enhanced during conversations with an online submissive (not mine mind you. :) I hope it provides many good ideas on how a slave/sub can be useful in a service-oriented relationship; making the domme's life more pleasant and stress free. The items on the list are not intended to be part of fantasy play, but rather real tasks performed regularly by the slave/sub without the need to be reminded or 'ordered', and with as little supervision as possible. A slave with a high UQ makes Mistress' life easier, not more difficult, by his presence.
The scoring is easy. There are fifty items on the list. Two points are scored for every task done regularly (without the need of reminders), one is scored if the task is not desired by the Domme or simply does not apply, and zero points are scored otherwise.
I recommend that the sub take a self-exam, scoring himself and assigning a Utility Quotient. Afterwards, he should request that his partner administer the scoring. A comparison of how well the sub believes he rates vs. his score given by his partner will prove quite enlightening and should lead to some interesting conversation!
If you've been reading my articles, you know that true submission requires you to learn the needs of your partner. Therefore, this list is nothing more than a starting point. I welcome new ideas to the list and am anxious to hear what your partners are adding / removing.
Score well!
