My previous errant maid called my in-laws' maid last week to brag that she is going to HK to work. Created an upheaval in my household before she was sent back by the agent, still got the cheek to call. Just when I was trying to put the unpleasant incident behind me, her phone call stirred up bad memories again. I pity the new employer in HK.
i heard the maid needs to pay all upfront cost before can go to HK instead of loan. does your previous maid have such amount of money?
if her new job in HK can not work out, she will have to go back home and lose all the cost she paid. -

no...you mean someone actually employed a smoker maid??? -
Hi liuhao
I have not heard abt a dating group for the philipino maids. My maid’s group also got guys but they organised and participates in sports event…Also heard of them joining something like Mr and Miss XXX pageant.
Possible that she secretly smokes behind employer’s back? Also nothing in the law to say that they cannot smoke, right?( unlike pregnancy, which is not allowed). -
My friend’s ex-filipina maid should be a smoker too. After she was sent back (stole USD$200), my friend found a pack of cigarettes hidden at the down-water pipe.

I was also harrassed by my previous maid thru phone calls & smses, until I changed my house number and mobile number. Then she had the cheek to contact me recently through facebook, and sent me a friend invite! What nerve! After causing so much unhappiness in my household before leaving, she had the cheek to do this! :x :x -

My neighbour, american expat had this filipina for 5 yrs, Ive seen her smoking when the employer is out of town. My friend has a very good filipina maid for 19 yrs now, they caught her smoking but they dnt bother as she does not smoke in the house. My ex filipinas husband plants and sell tobacco but she does nt smoke. I notice quite a lot of filipinas that smoke are quite old (in their 30s) u can catch some smoking openly at the side road of Lucky p.Breadandmuffins:

hihi,
sorry it's me again. Remember the maid I was grumbling about wanting to transfer at gthe end of 2nd week with me?
After I decided to give her a 2nd chance, she \"survived\" another 2 weeks. Now crossed the 1-month milestone
so far perf not excellent but still manageable..
Now she is trying to test my limit again - she requests to keep long hair even after I 1st day already told her all my maids keep short hair. She said she will tie it up etc....Actually I am not that inflexible but still I don't like the idea that she keeps on testing grounds - off-days, transfer, and now hair issue.
I know my answer is \"No\" but I wanna say it in a way that can convey a win-win outcome. I already told maid that few months before she goes back home, i will let her keep long hair.
Hubby says he will tell her the big \"NO\". I am thinking of telling maid all the cons, e.g. hair will be dry if shower late, more shampoo cost etc. but hubby said no need, just say \"NO\" !!
What's your take on this?? Don't know why....think I must visit the agent again soon.... :roll:
Rgds,
Ming
