hi,
i recently encountered this part time maid,who cleans my hse once per wk,has some habits which i am not sure if i shld continue to keep her…
1)she uses the rag n sweep the dust fr. table/chair.U can see a lot of dust esp. eraser debris which she sweeps fr my son’s desk. I’ve to walk carefully if not step onto the dust. I asked her why she sweeps to the floor,she said she’ll vacuum later.
2) After she finishes cleaning,she’ll use the toilet b4 leaving.Forever,she will not flush toilet after used.I asked her to use common toilet but she keeps using my room’s toilet.
3) she talks very loudly,keeps chatting with her earpierce while mopping/cleaning.Very interrupting esp when i am teaching my kiddo.
4)she uses one pail of water to mop the whole hse.ask her to change,she said no nid to change,save water.
her work is so-so. i am not sure if i shld keep her. -

No..I will not keep her. I hire her service for those hours so I will not expect her to use the phone to chat while working.hi,

TheAnswer,
She used the toilet in the common bedroom,not master bedroom.But I still find a bit uncomfortable,coz she didn’t flush afterwards.I’ve to flush after she leaves.
Is it a norm that the PT maid sweeps the debris onto the floor like hawker centre aunty?She wasn’t happy coz she didn’t wanna use rag,she asked me to give her feather duster,but i refused. -
I would terminate her services and look for another maid.
How can anyone tolerate a maid that pees and goes off without flushing?
She’s supposed to be cleaning for you, not you cleaning up after her.
Using only one pail of water for “cleaning” the whole house would mean that she’s merely transferring the dirt from one part of the house to another. She’s not CLEANING the house. -

To me, if she cannot do the things you allocated to her in the way you want. Terminate her services. -
thanks for all ur advices. I've requested for a change wf cleaning company agent.
haiz....so hard to find a decent one...The previous one used the same small pail of water to wipe window,tabletop n sofa.Worst of all,she wiped the dirty windows first,then wiped the sofa.My peach sofa bcame brown sofa.After that, i asked her don't nid to wipe window.
Then,i caught her using my hand towel to wipe toilet bowl cover! :scared: So b4 she came,i kept all the hand towels.
Later,i saw she ironed the clothes straight after clearing n throwing the rubbish,yes,without washing her hands.So i no choice but to iron clothes myself. :slapshead:
