          I wished we could form a group and share a maid...


          5 households share one maid..

          Maid will just do cleaning, washing of clothes and ironing.

          Maid's salary :$350
          Levy : $300 ?
          Total 650...each household : $130

          Monday morning : Clean house 1
          Monday afternoon : Wash and Dry House 1 clothes
          Tuesday morning : Clean house 2
          Tuesday afternoon : Wash and Dry house 2 clothes
          Tues evening : Iron house 1 clothes
          Wed morning : Clean house 3
          Wed afternoon : Wash and Dry house 3 clothes
          Wed evening : Iron house 2 clothes
          Thurs morning : Clean house 4
          Thurs afternoon : Wash and Dry house 4 clothes
          Thurs evening : Iron house 3 clothes
          Friday morning : Clean House 5
          Friday afternoon : Wash and dry hose 5 clothes
          Friday evening : Iron hose 4 clothes
          Sat morning : Iron house 5 clothes
          Sat afternoon : REST
          Sat evening : REST
          Sun* : Go to any of the 5 houses to do any thing...each weekend just one and must be in order...

          For $130 a month.... :celebrate: think we can even afford to pay her more. But the households must live around each other.
          only drawback is maid have to stay in the registered house....so i guess the actual employer pays lower ?

              kelamel,

              what you are doing is illegal and doesn’t sound right. Think you better take the discussion off-line.

                  Yo can 'borrow' your maid for a few hours a week ?

                  Last time i had a maid for my grandma...she was quite free and we sorta have an arrangement with my gd fren

                  or we take this discussion offline ?
                  Please remember an old lady who subcon out her maids and took a cut of their earnings. I recall she kena jail time. This is no joke.

                      Just be ready for attitude change in maid after such deals are on. …

                      They will learn to make more demands and slack in their work… …
                      If they not happy after awhile, they will request to return to agent…
                      Can be a real headache for employer and may not be worth it…

                      Juz me $0.02… …

                        agree with auntieM.


                        even small fry also can get jail and fine. cos the intent is still the same, therefore regardless of its subcon or small fry, punishment is still the same.

                        auntieM,
                        there’s a message for you on LKVM.
