All About Full-Time Maids
-
Experienced maid are more demanding. This is only normal. That’s why there are employers who prefer to hire fresh maids.

of cos maids hv to plan their own lives tats y i know its time to let her go cos whn they progress one day to become no longer like a
maid they wil gv trouble to us by then. i dun wan to see tat day. n i also cant gv her 500 n wkly off whc she wil demand on nx renewal. surely maids pay hv a ceilg right? anyway the main reason is i hv low tolerance for her blackface n attitude twds my no 1. she seem to define own job scope to carg for no 3 only. my no 1 told me whn she saw her wear new pyjamas tat i bought for no 1, she told no 3 so
unfair (tat i din but for no 3)
my frd had a myanmar maid, first n last, she has own laptop n started surfg net whn she discovered got free internet. my frd ftwm, jus 1 p3 kid, dh oversea, so simple job, the maid started watchg tv, chat hp, surf net. n quarrel wf the kid -
evn aft ny frd paid her maid taxes for her, $1300, in order to renew passport to finish contract, the maid wanted to go hm

My ex-maid (who was staying at my place) was first allowed to close the door. I accidentally found out that she was burning candles (remember, she's the thrifty sort - didn't want to turn on the lights). After that, sorry, no more close door. I don't want to have the house burnt down.
m stil readg old posts: my maid also like to light up candles in her rm acc to her durg prayer time at nite or wat. i told her dangerous but she say dun worry (stubborn). whn i unpack thgs aft shiftg i threw a candle but she pick it back n say she wil use. sigh. first sign of disobedience -
i was reading the previous posts abt maids not wearing bras n this thot came to me: what is the maid wears BOOSTER bras?? hee…
anyway, my maid still dresses appropriately (short sleeved top). i know she has red lacy bra and G-strings but since she doesnt do anything funny and its paid by herslf, i dont bother… -
What is booster bra??!! I only heard of maximizer.
-
yeah, i heard of maximizer and stuff tissue only.
-
they are the same thing: booster, maximiser, push ups…
anyway i m just joking. dont think they will buy cos its so ex unlless they are the kind of maid that wear revealg clothes esp during offdays. but then who knows??? -

before my maid was given her official once-in-two-mths off day, there were a few times we were meeting my mum for family birthday dinner. my mum didnt like her (old folks cant accept maids) n my dh say, since she got nothg to do when we were away, drop her at nearby shoppg mall to walk walk.raynreg, for filipino maids be mentally prepared. After their first tast of off day, they will start asking for more off days like christmas, good friday, new year's day etc. My first maid was like that, if she didn't get her off day her face turns black for a few days!
Also not sure if you would like to stress on their dressing because my myanmar maid dressed low cut on her off day and she made coffee in that outfit for my hubby. I was really mad!
who knows some time later, my maid one day asked me: mdm, nx time if u r gg to meet ur mother, can let me know earlier? so that i can pre arrange to meet my friends whom i had not seen for years???
sigh...i realised nx time if i nvr inform her or if the family meeting was cancelled last min, will she b unhappy if she cant meet her friends last min?? so u see, nvr give an inch. they ask for a metre. -

24hr-mum read your whole posts and still I feel you should pay her till 19th and not till 12th when she is leaving.. reason is for the 1st 2 yrs she was a perfect maid and i must say you should really be greatful for it... I dunno how many parents or ppl can say this.... you were really blessed...
thanks. i m still hesitating (tho its not much, just $75, but its the meaning behind that i want to convey)
her past performance was already rewarded in the past - free overseas trip, xmas n bday presents, weekly restaurant food.
plus i had bought her a two-way return air tickets (cos at first wanted her to finish contract), and i didnt claim the return air tix $ from her new employer. so this is already extra. if i were to claim from her new boss, her new boss may ask her to pay back shd she leave in 6 mths, cos as it is, the new boss who is ggoing to pay for her hm leave contract $300 becos she is taking the maid before her hm leave, is asking her to pay back some money if she were to leave in 6 mths (my maid unhappy wif this but still take it).
but the main reason is still i buay song over her attitude twds my elder gal (tho my maid still works responsibly in other aspects) : i had to wake my girl up every day myself for sch. wat if i oversleep?
anyway see how i feel that day when she leave n after i chk her luggage....
