      What time does your maid sleep? Does she usually have 8 hours of rest?


      My maid usually sleeps around 11pm+ after she is done with all her chores and she will get up at around 6am+.

          wow, your kids sleep early. Only my youngest one sleeps at 9pm. The older 2 sleep around 10pm. After my maid pat the youngest one to sleep, she will complete the rest of the hsework like sweeping and mopping and some washing then she will be off to bed.

              she said \"I never put in the trolley. Don't know.\" Like real, some kind soul dropped it into her trolley and she didn't notice when she was paying that there were cookies and chocolates in there? If they want to eat, just admit it lah. Or pay for it with their own money on a separate recipt so no need to ansswer to the employer.

              wah like that also can. she must be thinking we are as dumb as her ?

              My This Maid Did the Same.
              Reprimanded Her and Now She Careful About this ....
              Since She Know Mam Look At Receipt ....

                jst want to check. currently my maid has to sweep and mop floor on daily basis for living/rooms and also i want her to scrub the kitchen floor(cooking daily and i hate when it's oily and my baby walk on it).. how abt u gals ? wipe windows/fan once a week/bi-weekly.. toilet daily too.

                      [


                      I recently heard of this Indon maid frm a friend that she wanted a transfer as her salary should now b 450 today, when asked where she heard this she replied \"M O M say.... Her employer challenged her and brought her down to MOM..... at MOM the customer service officer mention they never implemented this fixed salary and told the maid off. :lol:

                      I wnt to Unity employment at adelphi and their indons are at 360 plus 20. I guess the 20 is for no off days. I think they are very reasonable.
                      For once, we hear about MOM on the side of employer. This MOM employee should be complimented for telling the maid off. šŸ˜Ž

                      But then come to think of it, shouldn't your frien's agent be the one to tell the maid off there's NO such rule from MOM ? 😐

                        my maid ard 10.30 - 11... depends upon the work.. kids sleep by 10-10.30 and she wake up at 6.. so 7 hrs sunday she can wake up by 7.30 šŸ˜›

                        My kids wake up the same time on sunday so maid also gotta wake up early to help out. But she can skip cooking for the family on weekends as usually we will eat at parent's place or ta bao.
