My maid's slipper is worn out. She doesnt want to wear the cheapo ones that I buy for her and asked to buy and pay herself, which is really fine with me.
Hquek, yes..quite a butterfly. Makes friends everywhere even with no off-days. She hasn't finished her loan so only getting allowance each month. Still, she can spend. Buy earrings, hair accessories, snacks, skin care etc. Even want to buy new glitter glitter shoes then I asked her where she want to wear them too as she don't hv off-days. Only then she stopped herself and told me she got loads in Indo.hquek:
hi littlefly,
Where benefits are concerned, everyone (maid or not) will be eyes bright bright. Unfortunately yours probably wants to be a butterfly and go out to flitter. pretty impressive that she can spend until broke each month. I really wonder how she can survive the off day with no money in her pocket - Sg is not the cheapest of places.
So far, I usually encourage my maids to remember why they come to SG in the first place (aka to earn money), and give them the dream that they will go back to their hometown with bulging pockets.
I don't want to 'mother' her if she cannot save. Did encourage her to think long term. Spend in Indo after saving up coz things here v expensive. Come to work not to make bfs. My neighbour's maid whom is her 'best friend' super bad influence on my maid. Neighbour's maid is lucky to have v liberal employer who gave her off each month, wear make-up, wear sexy clothes and carries 2 handphones as got 3 bfs here and even permit her to invite other maids friends home (this bit i don't believe coz she did it while her employers are all out).
She asked to go to BATA and bought a pair of slippers for $34. Must be feeling super rich. She just repaid her loan 2 months ago. -
My mum has been complaining about the maid, that the maid has better life than her. That she still needs to cook for the maid. Haiz…
