All About Full-Time Maids

[Hiccup]

My male colleague was also cheated by his Indian maid. Said son fell off from a building and asked to go back to see him. Indian maid joined his family for less than 3 months. Asked to loan $1,500. Went back and never come back again. He was not convinced when we tried to dissuade him, stubborn actually, until reality sets in.

[quote]I can't agree more with that statement. My maid has the audacity to tell my mum that I took one of my mum's clothes “to give to my girlfriend”, when all the evidence is pointing to her. And guess what, i got scolded.

My maid (at that time was about one month with me) blamed me when I asked her why she cut my lotus flower. :x She said \"mam cut\" in front of my face. If I cut, why should I be asking her. She then blamed my mother and my husband for cutting it. What a liar she is. From that day onwards, I take what she said with a pinch of salt.

My maids are super big time actors and liars. Can you believe mine tried to sow discord between my mother and I ? :x That maid is super idiotic...maybe she can succeed if it is not my mother. As if I won't clarify matters with my mother.

Yes. I think it's obvious from the many posts that maids are not trustworthy so my parents installed a camera. But the camera ain't hot so I wonder if it's a real one.


Adding to my above post, I don't even have a girlfriend. I have 2 close friends that are girls though. And guess what, my mum trusts my maid so much she actually scolded me for being in a relationship right before nationals :stupid:

Your mum kenna poisoned by the maid lah. I told my hubby we must never disagree or have an argument before a maid. It's so stupid to do that. One more thing, I don't allow my maids to have contact with hubby's family because I do not like them to ask about my family.

Hi moonee,

I have no experience but if I were to encounter this, I think I will just take the medical form notification and send maid to see the doctor for check-up anyway! Even though pass deadline should still do since your aunt is keeping the maid. The medical is once every 6 months so this one should \"tahan\" for another few months before the ministry sends another notification again...

Since maid is due for that checkup, send her for it since she is due. Next check up should be in 6 months. No escaping.

Hi Hi all,


Just to update, you may remember my post about going to the maid agency and just grab a maid about one month ago as I needed help very urgently to look after my dad just discharged from hospital.

She was a transfer maid and we are her 3rd employer since Feb2010. Went to fetch her about 3 weeks ago and checked through her luggage on the first day (this is something I learnt here from other fellow employers!)

When I first went to the agent, the agent promised that the maid would be available within one week and MOM will approve within 3 days. Turned out I waited for 2 weeks just for all the paperwork to be sorted out before I can collect the maid! Felt a bit pissed on the waiting time especially since the maid is already here and I have interviewed her. In the meantime, I suppose due to all the paperwork, insurance, liability and all they will not let me take the maid out until everything is done.

Anyway, glad to report that so far so good! This young Indon. maid works for my mother and follows her in and out. Initially she came was quite scared and glum-looking. Now can see she has settled in and more relaxed with my family and can at least smile at us! My mother is also quite nice to my maid, she will allow her to nap in the afternoon since sometimes the maid got interrupted sleep looking after my dad at night. She also will not scold her but will joke with her to get her point across.

Am relieved because last thing I need is a problem maid or problem employer (my mother, heh..heh...).
