Maidless...
9:19 AM
long time never post liao. been very busy lately... -_-''' so i just slack a bit at work and blog a bit here...my dad is back from china on monday. Jia yun is still as cute as ever! haha. yesterday, after my work, i went to westmall to meet my dad and the others to buy my CNY clothes. yes, it's not done yet. haiz... and sad to say i have to buy them at westmall. i suggested Bugis but end up my father didnt want to go there. T_T so i've to squeeze out some clothes out of westmall or i'll have to go naked during CNY. so yesterday, i bought 2 tops, a skirt and a pair of jeans. the jeans is suppose to be "skinny" jeans but i didn't know why the cutting is so big. i bought size 25 and it still fit comfortably on me (meaning i dont have to squeeze up the jeans up my butt) i really wonder if felicia wants to buy the jeans, she may need size 20. lolz
anyway, another big news is that i'm maidless again. yes, my maid was sent off on monday. well, considering the fact that we really need a maid (coz i've started working), we would have been very reluctant to send off a maid. however, we really have to do so. it is definitely not because of her BO. we've successfully treated that problem for her. it's just because of her attitude. obviously, for a family that needs a maid like us, we would be rather complacent as much as we can be. but the only thing that we cannot tolerate is her attitude towards her work.
ok, let's not say about how lazy is she in her housework. the most important thing about having the maid is to take care yuan yuan. however, she definitely didnt have the 'heart' to do so. there was once my mum forgot to give yuan yuan pocket money. normally, my mum would give lots of coins and little two dollar notes to my maid so that she can do some last minute marketing. so when my sister did not have any money, she asked from the maid. and guess what, my maid just tell her "i've got no money! don't get from me ah!" shit her. and the worst is that my maid only gave her TWO FIVE CENTS. yes, the tiny gold coin. how can she have the heart to do that to my sister? and the fact is that the money that she has is MY MUM's, not hers!
Upon knowing about this, my mum asked my maid to take out all the money that my mum gave her. you know what? she has a $10 on her. $10?! where on earth did she get the money from? her reply was that she collects all the money my mum gave her and change it to $10 at the market. she's only here like a few days and she's doing this kind of things? how do we know that she really DID get the $10 from exchanging? and even if she did, she've got no right to do it as it is my mum's money. we gave her coins and two dollars only coz she only needs to do simple marketing. why would she need $10?
the most fustrating thing is that, given her responsibilities to take care of my sister, even if she really don't have any money from my mum, she should have the courtesy to use her own money first then claim it from my mum.
for her working attitude on housework, that was so much a big headache than a help. she will find almost everyway to slack. if no one notice, she'll not wash the toilet. and the noodles that was prepared for the children are always flawed. she will purposely put in more effort on preparing for my mum and uncle and give the children sub-standards food to eat. (well, coz the one who pays the maid is the adults) how can we leave yuan yuan to such a person? there was even instances where she never bath yuan yuan the whole day! the whole day lehz! waliew.
among all the maid that we have hired, she is with the worst attitude. so really, we cant leave yuan yuan to her. so we have to send her away. so since my dad is back, we have no maid at all. and things are getting a little messy here and there (coz i can't be a full time maid), but it's ok. we are planning to get another maid, so for now, we'll just have to settle the things ourselves.
