      If there were only 2 maids in the world to choose I’d choose my Chin one - "gong gong gila gila", over the La Shio (near China) one who was "hao lian" lazy.

        just to give an update, i had just fired my bermese maid and sending her back tmr. don’t have energy to explain my bad experience with her despite i treated her so nicely.


        her flight is tmr morning, i informed her last night. and guess what is her response when she heard i am sending her back. she said, ‘huh, i don’t want to go back, mdm MUST send me back to agent, why mdm nvr tell me early, if you tell me early i can still ask agent to find me another job. like that i don’t want, i will lose $$ if i go back and come again. mdm MUST call my agent. cannot lah, mdm CANNOT do like that’

        if MOM is still open at that time, i will call for the officier to bring her get out of my house. SO DARING to blame me. not even bother to ask if she did anything wrong. I felt breatheless talking to her, as a expecting mummy with a 7 mth baby in my tummy, i tried my best to control my temper. i told her, i am so nice to give you earlier notice, still allow you to go out today to exchange $ and go shopping. You don’t appreciate all these, i should had followed singapore standard, tell you on the spot and send you off.

        i am so glad that i made a decision choose to have a maidless life. she looked like a nice girl but in fact, damn stubborn and rude. no respect at all. so wish anyone saw my post, will give up the idea of hiring a bermese maid. they are not worth the $$. they don’t really want to be a maid here. Don’t waste your time & $$. their problems are more serious than other nations.

              thanks 1amber, my nightmare is finally over. i should had taken a photo of my maid this morning. she took half an hour to do her make up, wear a red color dress with black stocking, and a new pair of sparkling shoes she bought yesterday. Big round earinings and necklace, carried a fashionable sling bag and her 15kg luggage with full bag of clothes she brought over from her home town last time. 2/3 of them i did not even see her wearing before. I bet no one can tell she is a maid. more kua chang than those filipino.


              i roughly cleaned my house before sending my girl to her childcare. on the way to office, i told my hubby i felt so excited. he said with this experience next time must be careful. i told him no no, no next time, i will nvr ever want a maid no matter how. at least bermese is definitely a NO NO.

                  My relatives burmese is leaving tomorrow evening and shes 4 months pregnant, she just registered her marriage and held a ceremony last week and is off tomorow to see her family after 5 yrs. Well she spent some time training my relatives new maid. Alto the new maid has a wide experience behind her, my relative still trust her burmese , she has proven herself a trustworty person and alto she may not be the best in housework., shes the most trustworthy, she does not steal n is very straight. Sad loss but she really wants ahusband n a family all this while.
