SINGAPORE: A frustrated employer took to social media seeking the opinions of other foreign domestic helpers concerning her maid.
The woman wrote that for the past eight months, her maid had lots of food in the refrigerator, but because she was lazy to cook and was afraid of hot oil, she would insist on eating instant noodles. The employer added that her maid would eat directly from the pot used to cook noodles. The employer said that the maid was “Very calculative to the point that she insist that she needs 8 hours of rest but in actual fact she has more than 8 hours of it”. She explained that the maid would wake up at 7.30 am daily but sleep by 8.30 pm most days. She also had a daily hour-long tea break at 3 pm. Most of the time, the helper would be alone in the house from 8 am to 6 pm as the employer’s mother would only return home at 6 pm.
