<font color="aa00aa">celtricia</font> - lucky you check her bags. You made the right decision. Guess for all maids that we sending back, it's better to check their bags cos dunno what things they "steal" from us lor. haiz... but some of them also smart lah. Before we can check, they already "give-away / exchange" our stuffs with other maids when we not home to supervise them.

dymples,
it's my BIL whose style is to "thumb down" the maid...hehs...not Joy747. kekeke....
yah, i agree with you. degrading leh. I hear or see already, also feel pai seh. nvm...just have to teach my gal the right values.
May,
my maid from Phil - Pangansinan. Her 'dancing' is like this: think tribal dance...round the campfire. bounce bounce bounce quite vigourously one (but looked quite funny also). I used to slow dance with my gal to rock her to sleep...then I got tired. haha. But not the bouncy/jerky dance. hahaha...
Celtricia,
Lucky thing u checked her bags. Anyway, she's out of ur home already...so good thing lah.
re black magic, my fren's Phil maid told her that her mother (maid's mother) back in the PHil knows how to do black magic. Think the maid was trying to scare her. And that maid is a christian some more. My fren's a Catholic. So anyway, my fren's priest visits them regularly, and each time he visits, my fren notices that the maid's face will be black black. My fren's a SAHM, so also easier to keep an eye on her maid lah.
Makes me wonder, should we occassionally check their belongings then? By the time we check when they leave, will it be too late?

mummies,
I was thinking of letting my this new maid call home next friday (her son's 3rd birthday). I thought, it would be a nice gesture lah (yah...even though she has been blur blur with my stuff...). As a mother myself, I think I will miss my kid a lot on her birthday...esp only 3 years old. So thought, ok lorh. let her call home on the birthday. What do you ladies think?

Oh.... hahahhah.. too many post to catch up till blur liaoz. *lol* Yeeks! Your tat friend's maid face will be black-black as in unhappy the priest visit her?? Would suggest your friend check her things regularly then. My mom always tells me not to leave our hairs in the bathroom. She says black magic like to use hairs and pictures. On top of this, must never let the maid know your full name, birthday and time of birth.
As for your maid calling back... I tink it's a good idea. Sometimes as bosses we gotta be sympathetic to them. Some maids will appreciate and work harder. Maybe you can buy her calling card... tell her that you buy out of goodwill only and not to always expect it. Then see if she appreciates it. If yes... next time like x'mas can buy again. But if she takes it for granted, then dun buy anymore.

mummies,
my dog juz chew up my skirt this morning. partly due to the way my maid hangs the skirt. she has been repeatly reminded that she shld not leave the skirt hanging too low but she refuse to heed advise.
for such cases, what will u do to the maid? will u ask her to compensate?

dymples,
true true...will tell my fren that.
Yup, you have a point...buy calling card for her and see if she appreciates. But have to let her know not to expect it always. True...
Celtricia,
ooh...yah horh. Sekali cry, then forgot and go on and on. You have a point there too...ok, shall think about that.
ah bie,
a bit difficult to ask the maid to compensate leh. coz under the law, we cannot ask them to compensate if they damage our stuff (it's the law right?). Where does she hang her clothes? Maybe can tell her to hang HER clothes at the lower level/area, and you take the other areas...think like that, she sure will remember not to hang too low liaoz. hehs...

Lucky you send that maid back... cos if she can write those things in her diary... scary leh... cos she may just go bonkers anytime.
<font color="aa00aa">Ah Bie</font>,
For me I won't ask the maid to compensate cos it's against the the law to make the maid compensate for such things. I would tell her off really angrily and firmly... but not shouting at her. Tell her that such mistake is not acceptable cos you have reminded her countless time. Then threaten her if next time she dun follow instructions, you will remove her priviledge, for example, no off-day that month.

Hey guys,
Thanks for all the enquiries on my transfer maid. She's now been confirmed with a new employer.
One question, are we suppose to still pay our maid during their home leave? Is that suppose to be their paid or unpaid leave?
Tamarind, you're right that MOM doesnt require exit visa for maids on home leave. But for philippino maids they need to get exit pass because of philippines law. I called the embassy and they said need to apply for exit pass. And you can only do it thru accredited agency which charges $240-300!! it's ridiculous! I asked the embassy, if Singapore doesnt need your national to have a pass to go in and out of SG, why must you impose it? And its almost $300 which is a lot of money for some!! It's no wonder a lot of employers are reluctant to give maids home leave. Anyways, to cut long story short, I think the Philippines Embassy is crap. It's almost extortion. But nothing I can do about it.

I'm back liaoz... went out juz now to run errands. hehehehh...

OMG!! That's really extortion man. Guess it's another of their policy to extract more $$$ from "wealthy s'poreans" lah. *aarrgghh*
No wonder lesser and lesser people are keen to hire maids from Phili. Getting more restrictions on us employers. *hmmp*!!

Celtricia,
looking for me again?? Went to the zoo with my boy today. Didn't take my maid. I think she happy stay at home and shake leg. but then I happier she's not out with me. Then I can spend $$ freely. I dun like to bring my maid out with me if I just want to go jalan jalan or take my boy out to all these places. Dun want her to think we v rich lor.
CSI,
my experience with my #1 maid is like this:
let her call home soon aft she started with us cos she said it was her 7yo son's bday. She talked and talked and talked. In one night finished the entire calling card worth $10 (=50mins of talk time!). Aft that kept on asking for calling card every fortnight.
my #2 maid, totally never let her use phone at all. Why? cos 1st day she come she asked if she can have hp liao! Haven't even started doing any work (yes very literally. just unpack her things in the room and came out to ask!). Few days later took my MIL's hp w/o permission. So wary of her and dun let her use at all.
#3 maid -- proved to be very proactive, positive and very zi dong in the first 2 weeks. I took out her hp myself and told her to contact her family when the news reported that her hometown (ilo ilo) got badly hit by typhoon.
aft that, she's never really asked to use her hp.
i think it really depends on the maid's attitude lor. and really is a gamble. Have to be firm abt the limits.
joy747,
got. my previous agent. But i won't recommend. cos their maids' quality not so good.

Wah seh... after reading your experience with your first 2 maids, it makes me feel angry. Why do they tink that we are supposed to supplement them with calling card? You give out of goodwill but they expect more. Worse is your 2nd fili maid. Can ask straight out for use of HP. Somemore dare to take your MIL's HP wz out permission. Terrible!!
I feel that maids nowadays tink they can take us emplyers for "free ride". They tink we stupid meh. Just becos we need their assistance with housework does not make them so indispensable that they can demand so much things from us. Frankly, I'm tired of being "held hostage" by such incorrigle maids. That's why I totally agree with Tamarind's blog... dun like the maid... change her!!

joy747,
my agent is from BestHome. Previous maid and current maid from BestHome. For BestHome, if the maid request for off days, agent will tell us. Then we "counter offer" no off days, then agent will check with the maids, and if maids agree, then agent will manually write in the contract "compensate $20 for no off day" and counter sign.
For my #1 maid, she wanted off day (ex-SIN mah), but we told her cannot for at least the 1st year. She said ok. So agent did paper work etc for her to come over. Then, end up show us attitude etc and stole things.
nellu,
oh...wow. Ok, thanks for sharing your experiences with your maids. True...have to be firm about the limits.
The past 2 days, my gal didn't finish her milk at her 7.30pm feed. Then of course, I got frustrated lorh. My this maid got scared. hahaha. Yesterday, she kept apologising to me. She told me she blames herself that my gal does not nap and does not finish her feed. She feels shy (think she meant to say she feels pai seh) to hb and I, that this is happening. She even told me she feels it's an insult to herself, coz she has a 3 y.o. son, but yet cannot handle my 10-mth old gal. She's afraid that hb and I blame her. Then she tells me "please, I really need this work, ma'am". Think she got really scared we might send her back. hehs...
hb was telling me, wah, she can even use the word "insult to herself" ah...so, while we would want to believe her, we have to discount what she says lah...in case she's just acting so that we wun keep such tight tabs on her, kinda thing. Not that we do...it's just that we're more kan cheong over baby's things lorh, esp since she's new. better to err on the side of caution.

Your this maid seems not bad... as least she's scared of you now. But agree that you must not relax and be lenient with her. Cos once we relax, they straightaway climb on our heads liaoz. Some also berry smart to act 'scared-scared' one. See how she progresses after some time. Hopefully she proves to be a good helper.
heheh... oic. yah.. when I was working also seldom got time to log-in. But now SAHM too much 'free' time on hand liaoz. *lol* Wah... so lucky. Go JB yah... my DH never likes to go there. He said so dangerous... not worth the risk just for cheap food and shopping.

Aiyoh... your maid really super blur and slow lah. 'pei-fu' you still got the patience to tahan all her nonsense. If it's me, OUT she goes liaoz. Me cannot tahan 'stupid' maids one. Guess your DH dun want to talk so much cos really 'pek-chek' liaoz? Let him cool down first yah. If my maid also 'drowned' my iphone and lost all my contacts and data, I would scream 'bloody murder' lor.
Luckily this current Indon maid so far still ok. Where certain areas of cleaning or cooking are not to my standard, I will tell her firmly and she will take note lah. Even my gals like her and now I 'feel safe' for her to take of my gals in the morning and prepare them for CC whilst I snooze abit longer.
<font color="aa00aa">celtricia</font>,
No worries babe... me expecting no.3 now. Already 33-weeks liaoz. Cos my first 2 came out at 37 weeks, gynae told me to prepare for early delivery for this gal too. hehehhe... I'm SAHM but able to login often cos both my older gals go to full day CC and maid takes care of housework. Now me juz concentrating on resting. heheh...
But then last 3-weeks was horrendous for me lor. First... was the changing of maids. Then the training. After that both my gals were down with HFMD! Wanna faintz with both of them screaming, yelling and whining at home. Few days later, DH also down with HFMD. Finally this monday only all go back to work and CC. Had hard time convincing my no.2 to go back CC siah. She keep crying buckets every morning. But I gotta be firm and leave her there or liaoz.... no end lor.

CSI_Fan, yes better to err on the side of caution. but at least ur maid treasures her job.. so I think she wont be dat bad.. unless another actress.
Alamak, **hugs** get well soon. Must be very hard on u, got to oversee everything when hb not in sg. Ur agent really too much where got park her maid at ppl's home dan charge ppl $$... ur bil shd charge her for maid lodging and food. Same here.. getting very scare of the maid changing.. esp for me duno why.. each maid that came is worse than the one before.
Celtricia, my son oso.. after a break its always very hard to get him to go cc. very heartpain. Now my bb oso started cc. Haiz.. no choice.. better dan put him at home and risk abuse from maid. Maybe for the new cc, u try follow him for the 1st few days... slowly..
Dymples, envy!!! ya for children sometimes really got to harden the heart and leave them in cc. but heart pain to see them crying.

So sorry to hear that you are so sick, no wonder never see your reoly...speedy recovery...
So, looks like filipino maid can also be quite jialet..that makes me think twice getting one.
Best thing in life is to be maidfree if we can manage the household ourselves....

Dun envy lah... cos hub is sole income earner, we gotta watch our expenditure very very closely lor. No more eating out when we feel like it... and gotta cut back considerably on our spending, especially on 'luxury' items. hehehehe... me love collecting Hello Kitty... but now wanna spend on hello kitty stuffs gotta get hub's permission first. Haiz...
<font color="aa00aa">Celtricia</font>,
My no.1 is coming 6-yrs in November, so next year going to P1. Then no. 2 is already 4, next year will be in K1. When I look at them, I wonder how quickly time flies. Feels only like yesterday that I was bringing this helpless newborn home. hehheeh... How about you? How old are your children?
Yah lor... all the troublesome things happen at once. I told hub lucky I not working lah. Cos I was in the hospitality industry (sales). Whre got luxury to take 3-weeks leave like this? If working and take so long 'urgent' leave sure to kena 'fried cuttlefish' liaoz. Not to mention sure to get incessant calls from office and clients.

If I were you I will sack her IMMEDIATELY!
aiyo, you'd better take care leh...keep getting fever hor?...
CSI,
All my maids also like to put up this kind of act. I've never once taken them seriously. Cos when they say things like that to me I'll tell them "Oh really? Then you should know what to do to buck up!" Luckily my current maid not so like that. The previous two, esp #2, everytime some minor mistake (also very often!) will put up this kind of stupid cry crocodile tears drama. Now I immuned liao. I just walk away.
and hor, better tell your maid to stop her nonsense dancing lah. Tell her firmly and str in the face. not good for baby leh! I also told my maid off sometimes cos she got no sense one. like told her before dun play so wildly with my boy near dinnertime/nap time cos will over stimulate him then he cannot wind down properly. She also like stupid. Then when ask her to jaga my boy when not near nap/sleep time (means can play noisier things), she go and do quiet activities with him...aiyo can die lah sometimes, no wonder my boy sometimes bo chap her!
Celtricia,
hehe..good what if free. when i was working, i got more time to be at the comp and do my own things. As sahm, where got this kind of time? One min must jaga the boy, the other must jaga the maid! piangz...tiring man!
i think your boy 'forgot' abt school liao cos of the break lah..
joy747,
yes ph maids also very terok one. like my #2 one, worst PH maid I've ever seen in my entire life. can't speak proper english, dunno how to do certain things, but make absolutely no effort to learn. only want easy life!

kanna sai,
if can improve the best lor. I think all of us are not looking for a perfect maid who doesn't make mistakes but the one who always makes mistakes and still makes no effort to improve is the most detestable one.
my attitude is if she makes effort to improve and really improve, i happy liao.

No hah... sometimes ask for permission, he will tell me ok... but after that will 'talk' to me about high credit card bills. So in end, I'd feel guilty so din buy lor. *sob-sob*
<font color="aa00aa">celtricia</font>,
Aiyoh... this one is accident lor. That's why after this I confirm 'tie' my tubes liaoz. Scared another accident. I find that NFP definately dun work for me! *aarrgghh* Plus, I can't use the other contraceptives that has hormones like The Pill, Patch, IUD, etc... cos my hormones all go hay wire. Terrible mood swings + erratic bleeding.

hahahha... i know what you mean. Nowadays pax/fellow crew can be quite the a**h***s lor. I get lots of such irrational, demanding and irritating guests/clients too. But on the reverse, my patience with them is ok... but when comes to maid... no more liaoz. Do hope your current maid will buck up and prove to be good bah. *good luck*

Agree with you totally. We not looking for perfect maid... but one that is willing to learn (even from mistakes). Most important is positive attitude.
No hah... sometimes ask for permission, he will tell me ok... but after that will 'talk' to me about high credit card bills. So in end, I'd feel guilty so din buy lor. *sob-sob*

Aiyoh... this one is accident lor. That's why after this I confirm 'tie' my tubes liaoz. Scared another accident. I find that NFP definately dun work for me! *aarrgghh* Plus, I can't use the other contraceptives that has hormones like The Pill, Patch, IUD, etc... cos my hormones all go hay wire. Terrible mood swings + erratic bleeding.
