      [She's an ex-sin. She used to get every Sunday off.

      Terms can be re-negotiated.
      Not necessarily ex-sin must give off days.

      I came across a maid, appears very proud, unfriendly face, WOrks in SIN for 10 years. Wants off day every week. Pay is reasonable for an ex-SIN.

      i still wave bye bye to her as I don't want a maid with off days.
      So what if I have to train maids, I rather train than be trained by her 😛

          My current maid works in Dubai before but told me she doesn't want to go back there anymore.

          Same goes to my another maid who is ex-Hongkong. She doesn't want to go back there too. :siam:

            my next maid (who's touched down in SG) has worked in Dubai before. It seems like it's a hard life there.

              Ok, some light moment.


              I realise my filipino maid couldnt pronounce the ‘F’ sound. Fan become Ban, Fish become Bish etc.

              The ‘A’ sound is too ‘Ah’ liao, certain words eg taxi, camera are stressed too strongly.

              Gotta correct her coz my toddler will imitate!

                  I thought Hong Kongers treat their maids very well.


                  I also bring her go shopping, only I let her free-roam and meet her at a certain time.

                  Any one wants to help me do some sleuthing? I managed to get her cousins’ numbers. Just wanted to really make sure they’re not in Singapore.

                      Why do you want to go through all the trouble yourself?

                      Bring her to the agent and pass all the numbers to the agent and they will take over from there.

                        By the way, her cousin ‘advised’ her to borrow money from us for the air tickets. LOL!.
