Problems about maids are endless, no?

It's quite interesting to hear moms complaining about MAIDS. Especially on this year's Raya, almost every houses that I went , topics about maids would not be missed.

"eh, maid aku aritu lari rumah"
"eh, maid aku tak nak kerja. dah la penipu"

etc etc etc..

and then, one of the aunt who saw me listening said, "one day, u will be like us , talking about maids " .. *speechless*

My family has a lot of experiences with maids . The problematic ones however outnumbered the good ones.

Those who ran away were the top most in rank. The latest occured 2-3 months ago when my mom went out to fetch Ewanina and left Ellyssa(4yrs old) alone at home with the maid. When they got back, they were shocked the door wasn't locked, and Ellyssa was all by herself , alone-at-home-watching-TV.


Another maid,a lil bit wanked-off , who had once gave a knife to my mom and ordered my mom to kill her after being scolded for not doing proper job. This same maid, psycho she is , pulled out a few teeth after my brother complained how bad her mouth odour were. Her work was a mess, she improperly arranged things and put everything upside down, inside out. *sigh*

Those who got sent back because they could not work, those with medical diseases, those who got pregnant and we managed her till she delivered and also been sent out after, bla bla bla..

The good ones were few. Alhamdulillah we just received a good one few weeks back. She can't cook because the last time we asked her to cook vegetables, she added sugar into it.. *HAHA*

But she is really good. She worked like a robot which we all wished she would have an OFF switch. Once she starts with a specific work, she would not stop and would not care what is happening in other areas of the house. pfft ! but Alhamdulillah, really !

I could not imagine how my life would take me in future.
Definitely we would be needing one , as my work is around the clock most of the time. and he too. Or maybe we shall depend on the parents :D omg , .. when will you be independent?

u know.. help to take care of the kids when we are not around. IF they don't mind us borrowing their maids and we could send our laundry to their places so that the maids could help us do laundry and borrow their maids to do house cleaning once a week. heheheee

Sounds like a good idea, ain't it? *grinnnnnnnnsssss*
