Today, my maid did something which further stoked up my suspicion over her character. We were at the church in the morning. Before we went into the church, we brought Alycia and Sherilyn to the toilet. While I was still inside the toilet, my maid brought the gals out to have their hands washed. When…

Maid Stories – Dubious Character
My maid seems to have a dubious character. While her work is considered good, somehow, certain things that she does over the last few weeks make her character appear dubious and I am quite troubled with that. This morning as I was having breakfast with Sherilyn, I saw her shelling a hard-boiled egg in the wet…

We Are Absorbing Our Temp Maid As Permanent Maid
After working for us for 2 weeks, my temp Indon maid’s performance is still good. My maid agent met up with me yesterday and I have confirmed with him that I will be absorbing this maid as my permanent maid. In total, we will have to pay a whopping RM9k, which comprises of agency fee (RM3,600), 6 months’ advance salary for the…
Up At 5:45AM On A Sunday Morning
I was up at 5:45 a.m. this morning to supervise my new temp Indon maid. She is definitely more efficient and thorough than the Cambodian maid. She moves around and works very swiftly too. Well, I hope she will continue to be this good and not just out to impress me for a few days. One thing I…
My Cambodian Maid’s Finally Gone
After giving her the final ultimatum, looks like my Cambodian maid still did not get my message. As I am not feeling too well, I woke up late today, at around 8am. When I came downstairs, I saw my maid singing away in the wet kitchen. Everything’s not done yet – the wok after cooking yesterday’s dinner was still soaked…
Caught Sleeping Again
My maid was caught sleeping on her job again, this time my mum caught her. I have been waking up late myself lately and could not spot check on her. When my mum woke up at around 7am today, she saw my maid walking out from her room with eyes half opened and ruffled hair, dragging…
Alycia Wants To Be A Baby Again
The day our new temp Cambodian maid arrived, Alycia knew what she wanted from the maid. She tried to be chummy with the maid and was very nice to her….. but she has an ulterior motive. From day one, she has been asking kakak to carry her everywhere. When she comes back from school, kakak…
Interesting Maid Stories
My mum and I have just discovered one of the reasons why our Cambodian maid is super slow in her work. Can you beat it that she takes more than 2 hours to clean our bedrooms upstairs everyday? Well, my mum found out why yesterday. Yesterday, my mum read an exercise book that my maid keeps to…
How Often?
Did She Mean To Steal?
When I went into the laundry room to look for my clothes today, I found a lot of rubbish that my maid has collected from our dustbins – things that we have thrown. I found some wrapping papers (from Sherilyn’s birthday pressies), a new sharpener (Sher’s birthday pressie), some crayons and coloring books that I…
Our Maid Is Treating Our Place Like Her Own
Several days ago, I told my Cambodian maid that she could help herself to the basket full of mandarin oranges in the kitchen. I didn’t mind her eating 2-3 oranges a day but this morning when I saw the wet kitchen floor scattered with mandarin orange seeds and skin, I was fuming mad. Only yesterday I…
I Can’t Stand My Cambodian Anymore
It’s the 3rd week she’s with us now and I have been telling myself to be patient, patient and more patient with her but I’ve had it. I’m exhausting myself and risking my pregnancy just because of her incompetence and ‘blurness’. I can still accept the bizarre things that she does but I just can’t stand…
Unbelievable Things My Maid Does
I hate to write about the things my new temp Cambodian maid does and about how incompetent she is but this one, I really must write about it. It is something so lackadaisical and silly that I just can’t believe it. This morning Alycia got up and as usual went to the toilet downstairs to do her daily poopie…
Busy Busy And Really Tired
The past one week has been hectic for me. Hubby has been really busy with his catering business lately, which is good for us but we see him lesser. He will normally do the marketing of vegetables, fish and fruits for us at the pasar malam every Friday but last Friday, my maid, the 2 girls…
Sulky Sherilyn
Sherilyn is still resisting our new Cambodian maid and has been refusing to be touched, fed, washed up, held or bathed by the maid. Yesterday morning when she got up from bed, I told my maid to bring Sherilyn to the toilet and to have her washed up as I was busy preparing Alycia for school. Sherilyn…
