Re: 工人放假問題
I think it depends on the personality and honesty of your maid. If she is a bad guy, whatever you do to her (good or bad), she will always find ways to take advantage of you. Just like you make friend with a new person, treating him/her nice doesn't mean he/she will treat you nice and be your good friend in return.
I like my maid because up to this moment, I still find her a very smart and considerate person. She always listen/observe carefully about your habits and provide the best service to your. For example,
1. She knows my mother-in-law like to have a cup of tea every morning, she will reboil the water (which always keeps at 60C) before my mother-in-law wakes up.
2. The first day she comes, I told her that she only needs to iron the shirts of Sir. I always wear T-shirt/clothes that don't need to be ironed. But she still iron all the stuffs, including the inner wears!
3. She saw me ordered "sweet and sour pork" at 大家樂. And she did that dishes at home later.
4. I took her to public library and ask her to find books she like to read and will borrow for her. (She don't have much entertainment at home. My husband object me to let her watch TV.) She chose those books about how to take care newborn baby. (I'm going to have the baby delivered this month.)
5. Whenever I ask her to take rest, she will stay at her room and read the cook books.
6. She likes chicken. So, I always ask her to buy chicken for dinner and I let her to take out the food from the dishes before we eat. She never takes the chicken wing/leg from the dish. It's me give her a leg or wing every time.
But if I find my maid cheated me one day, I will fired her immediately. (I had told her already no matter how good your performance, if you are dishonest, I won't let you stay.) I didn't want to play games with any maid - it's already too tired after a full-time work at office, don't want to feel unhappy at home.
我時刻都記掛著我那未能來到世上的bb,
他永遠在我心裡某個角落.
