Re: daily shopping money

以我自己例子來說,不用工人買送,但工人有時需單獨帶小朋友外出(不固定,約一個月兩三次),以前在她外出前給她八達通(卡內夾兩張村巴票及一張$100並同她講明此$100用來緊急之用),有一次,回來後她將卡放在台上(以前每次都是親手給我)當我見到時,那$100不見了,不能肯定誰拿了,便同她說以後卡需親手還給我並確定$100元在!如是者過了一個月,有一日我叫她出街買野,比了$500及卡,在街她致電我,叫我借錢給她,我話無,她說卡中那$100及夾埋買野所剩的錢約有3佰多,因她媽病了想匯錢去,我無可奈何由她!

自此,八達通不再放$100,及每當叫她買野,不預多!

但有時都幾擔心,如她與小朋友出街,遇了什麼事,連的士錢也無,我仍想緊有否緩衝之法!

Re: daily shopping money

I will give $100 to my maid daily and ask her to buy things from Park'N only. She is not allowed to bring my baby to wet market! She will give me the changes and receipts everyday. :-P

Re: daily shopping money

Do we need to ask her for the receipt?
If no receipt, need her to list all the details on a paper?

Re: daily shopping money

Yes, you must ask your maid to give you all receipts. If there is no receipt, you must ask her to list all the shopping items with individual breakdown.

Money is a great temptation for all maids! (and for all of us!:mrgreen:)

Re: daily shopping money

Is your maid Indonesia I think so !!I got a stubid Indonsia Maid for 2 weeks. My husband afraid her no money and give her $100 for emergency. One afternoon she call me no money to take MTR to pick up my son I ask her where is the $100. She told me $40 to buy a pair of new shoe $40 long distance call to her father and $20 to buy her food ???She don't understand what is the meaning of emergency just think that it's her pocket money ???
I suggest you don't give her emergency money.
If emergency ask her to borrow from the caretaker or neighbour. Because if they didn't keep the emergency money for emergency use then how can they handle emergency case independantly ???

I suggest you give 2 to 3 days first don't give too much and MUST write down the details in a book. Give them some DUTIES to do and always check the book. It is your duties !!!! Don't be lazy !!!! During checking you can small & warm talk to her and also let her know you understand the market price. Like me although I don't like to market, I always go to buy something Sat afternoon or Sunday !!!!
