All this assuming you are not a pet owner yourself

I grew up having a dogs at home and i love them dearly

So what do you do when you have to take a vacation or maybe go to work or maybe have a late meeting at work and not get enough time to walk the dogs ?

Why? Because you say so? If you pay your maid a decent wage and she understands this is her responsibility, what do you care?

Maybe a side talk, but .. Well, to back you up .. during one of my volunteer work, I crossed path with an employer who said they treat the maid with equal rights, and gets to go out when she is free and when she has no work to do, and the employer does her own shopping and so and so ... and went on to emphasis the fact that the maids are human being (oh - I gotta agree on that 100% - no way otherwise .. ) and it is time the maid found herself a boyfriend etc etc ... and all the while the maid was listening .. and casually in the few words of Tagalog I know, I asked the maid if she is married back home and she said yes, and then I turned back to the employer that it is time the employer started to get back to reality - and that her encouraging the maid to get a boyfriend etc. is not the right thing to do .. Oh gosh, the employer was shocked and said I am being unfair .. and conveniently refused to answer my question of what her pleasure is in breaking up the maid's family - instead harping on the fact that maid needs some 'love'

Well, I got the answer - these are the employers who get a maid, when they don't need a maid, then then wonder why the maid gets bored at home and then they go about micro managing the maids life ..

If you don't have work for a maid, dont' get one ..

If you think the maid is working - well, let me enlighten you - me too have to work to earn my moolah .. I don't get it free

Talk of reality .. Get real people ..

PS: I do treat maids as equal, and have done more than my share of counselling / and volunteering for such organisations .. and no- I am not a slave driver or preach so .. but I believe if you get paid to work - WORK - or find another job ..

Tina's been a bad girl and made a unholy mess of this thread be deleting all of her post's texts. Now Tina's no longer welcome and has had her account locked. Now I'll see if I can rebuild it as much as possible.

So you lock someone out because they delete all previous posts?

[BillyB]

I would have done the same. She threw her toys out of the pram and made a mess of these posts for everyone else.

Shows her mindset - a spoilt little brat......she was the big baby who needed looking after, not her kids!!

[sundaymorningstaple]

When she deletes 51 posts in a dozen or more threads in various forums, just because she spit her dummy? YES! she gets locked out. When and adults acts like a petulant child and makes a dozen or more threads worthless for future reference here, she doesn't deserve to be here.

At any rate, I've managed to restore around 80% of the threads thanks to google cached pages and my whole morning.
