Really 'Kik Sei Ngor' - Corrected

WEI-oooooo???!??!?!

Donno what happened. 

Donno how come the looooooooong post that I furiously typed-out didn't get published. 

Why-ah??

So, have to re-type again....the next day (20th March lah!)

Aiya. Who 'kik sei ngor'?

MAID lah!!!

At least now I'm much calmer. 

But I really went ballistic yesterday with the MAID. 

You see. I have INSIDE, KITCHEN and OUTSIDE mops.

Not only I colour-code my mops, I actually label them. 

And when she came to work for me, I did explain very clearly that I want the proper mops used and not mixed-up.

So can you imagine my fury when she used the OUTSIDE mops for the boys' rooms and my KITCHEN mop for outside areas????

Her response was that she prefer these mops than my INSIDE mop (which is a magic mop) and that she has washed them before using in different areas.

I was so angry. 

I said "If I wash the toilet bowl very very well. Use disinfectant and all, then pour a whole big bottle of drinking water (4 gallons!!) into the toilet bowl, scoop out in a cup for you to drink. Would you drink??"

She said NO.

I said "Clean what. Why don't drink??"

I mean what's the point of me having soooooo many mops if I think if washing is enough? I would just have one blardy mop and just ask her to wash, right??

I tell you...I screamed so loud that I'm sure my driver/gardener/guard thought that I've gone GILA.

I told her  "One more time I see you do this, you are fired. I don't want to have this conversation again. "

And then in the evening, I asked her to cut the carrots - big size but thin; and the onions in circles. She went and shred the carrots soooo finely and the onions too. She was almost finished, then asked me if that was correct. And had the cheek to say "sample of how it should be cut". This was when she already FINISHED cutting all the onions and 80% of the carrots. 

Again, I went ballistic lah. If sample, it would be a small portion cut. Not the whole blardy onion and 80% of the carrots!

I asked "Is it you don't want to work here anymore? You can leave you know?? Otherwise, why are you deliberately not following instructions??? ".

Of course she answered that she wants the job lah... 

But donno whether she phui (spit) some saliva into our food or not lah. 

haahhahahaha

And just now? I asked her to cut 2 oranges and 1 apple. 

What did she do?

Cut 1 orange and 2 apples.

I didn't scold her...but H did call her out and told her that she made a mistake again.

Always not listening etc etc.... and she should LISTEN!

On the same note of maids... my old maid, Y called me up the other day to request for a Letter of Recommendation. As I had a friend looking for maid, I asked if she's interested and she said yes. But when my friend called her up, Y was like tiu-kou-lei-mai... saying that she's not really looking for work, but even if she is, she won't live-in. The moment my friend heard that she won't live-in, also lost interest liow. I tell you ah... these maids. Donno what they think. I supposed she thought that just because she had worked 2+ years for an expat (me lah), she can demand her terms. She mm-chai-see or mm-chee-sei (don't know die) that it would be more difficult to find a job on her own with her non-existent English. Plus with my friend, she could at least get back the same salary as when she was working for me. 

Me take her back? No lah. If she don't want to  live-in, I also donwan.

Plus if I fire my current maid and take her back, surely she think she sooooo great, and give me problem. 

NO WAY, JOSE!!!!
