Only One Maid Now...

Okay... I know I know...Not Maid updates again... but must lah...since maids are such an integral part of our lifestyle these days...

Anyway, I offered Maid-Y more money to be the only maid in the house. Initially, she declined. (Aiya..the maids here are like that one. Want company and don't want to do everything in the house. They are supposed to be "specialised"). I offered her because so far, after Maid-A left, she has been alone doing the chores for about 3 weeks already anyway. So I know she can somewhat handle it lah. Plus think I can close one eye with just one maid if things are not "perfect". With two maids, very "mang chang" when things are still not done to my standard leh. Also, if things are missing...there's only one person you can point finger to.

As I was gonna get another maid to come in, she said that she will try to work alone for a month or two. And she asked if she can have an additional day off. I said OK. Boys are big enough..don't need to be looked after that closely. Anyway, I offered her about RM 100 extra plus eat whatever food we eat. Previously, she has to buy her own food from her RM 240 pay. So now, I pay her RM 340, she eats my food and get an additional day off. So, think she's got quite a good deal.

So, will see lah... Have a maid on standby end-Nov. Malaysian lady leaving for home... So, will see...
