Well as long as she 'reports' for work timely the next day, why not?EvaJ wrote:Just wondering if you ask her to return by any specific time or allow her to stay out as long as she wants?
Our maid has started to come back later and later, today for example at 10:30pm, so just wondering if this is something I should be worried about or do they normally stay out that late?
Thanks!
Reminds me of a recent cover of Get Rea! documentary by Cheryl Fox in CNA on romance life of FDWs in Singapore (with locals and also Bangladeshi construction workers - with predictable consequences), 'aptly' titled Bad Romance.nutnut wrote:Just explain the consequences of what you are concerned about... additional working and getting caught, her getting pregnant or doing something illegal.
That's the key ..nutnut wrote:If your maid is good and you trust her then surely this matters not, infact, if she really is good and you start coming down on her on her off days then she may well leave and you could have more problems by having to get a new maid and settling them in etc.
oh, a colleague of mine, conversationally, mentioned that he goes on 'three strikes' for the maid (the guy who is virtually staring at his home cctv monitor via web .. ) ..nutnut wrote:Just explain the consequences of what you are concerned about... additional working and getting caught, her getting pregnant or doing something illegal.

You cannot expect these people to act responsibly or have common sense!
I only give my slave a day off from her cooking and cleaning duties so she can do the ironing that she never seems to have time for on the other days of the month. And she can only leave the house when I need help carrying heavy stuff back from NTUC.
Disclaimer: I don't have a maid.
Don't ever ever think that maids does not have common sense or stupid.the lynx wrote:Reminds me of a recent cover of Get Rea! documentary by Cheryl Fox in CNA on romance life of FDWs in Singapore (with locals and also Bangladeshi construction workers - with predictable consequences), 'aptly' titled Bad Romance.nutnut wrote:Just explain the consequences of what you are concerned about... additional working and getting caught, her getting pregnant or doing something illegal.

In fact they are more clever and practical than we thought.
They look for bf not because they are lonely and needs to be loved. They simply need someone who pays for thier meals on thier offdays. Someone who pay for thier phone bills and someone who gives extra cash when they need it because thier bosses dont pay them well.
Pay them good $$$$ and see if they still need bf.
