My Indonesian Maid told me Sept is their New Year and she will 禁食 at that month and only eat at night.
Then, she requested me to give her the mobile phone during working hour and night also. She said she needs to SMS to Indonesia to check what time she can eat.....
Usually, I only pass her back the mobile phone after working hour at night and holiday.
Is there anyone experience this as above and any tips for me? I cannot understand why she needs to be told what time to eat at night. Also, if she cannot eat in the day night, why she needs the mobile phone?
Yes. I also heard that '佢地係要跟太陽升落黎禁食,
即晚上太陽落山嘅時候就要食野".
So, I have no idea why she needs the mobile phone on day time as she cannot eat anyway.....
But, if she just wants to cheat me and use the mobile while she is taking care my baby. Then, such execuse only can last for one month...... So strange so that I cannot understand if any other purpose behind .....
Yes. so, to respect her reglion and understand she may want the mobile phone at night. I give her the mobile after 7pm and ask her to give me back in the morning.
well, last night, ( the 2nd day of Sept), I went home late as OT . abotu 8pm, her face so dark.. Orginally, i dont know what happened. Then, I note that I have not given her the mobile as my mother did not remember to give to her as that is not normal practice.
So, i gave it to her when I back home and say po po forgot to give u. U can ask next time if she forgot and I may be late from work.
Then, she stop dark face .....
I learnt that, once you start to treat them better, they will dark more face to you when u are little bit failed from what they expected. Even more demanding than my boss....
