OMG! Last night my husband came home late from work for dinner at ~10pm. I went into the kitchen trying to talk to my maid. Since she was in the bathroom, I kept the kitchen door opened such that I could see her out. She only wrapped herself in a towel & went from her bathroom across the kitchen to her room. Last time I saw her doing the same when my husband was in business trip. I told her I did not expect her to do that - I expected she would not do it again!
When I confronted her last night, she said her clothes would be wet if she put them in the bathroom (small). I said I would think of some other means (e.g. putting her clothes right outside bathroom) than to take the risk of being run into by my husband in the kitchen if he happens to fetch some water!
I asked if she didn't feel it's not appropriate, I'll talk to other maids in the same building (same layout) & asked around if any maids would do that - of course I doubt it if anyone would do that except my maid!
She has worked for me for 3 yrs (1.5 more yrs to go). Though not perfect, at least she doesn't steal, borrow money, hit my kids. Is it a serious offence that I should fire her or give her a warning letter? I never do that to her cos she is quite smart, not like the average maids! Hopefully she will change her other flaws & become better than to get worse.
Why you need to ask around if there is any other maid would do that? If others are doing that, would you accet this kind of behaviour???!
I would never take any excuse whatsoever that my miad can walk around my house only with a towel on her!!! It is not acceptable AT ALL~
i dont want to see her dressing like that, i dont want my kid see that. and of coz not my hubby!!
if she drop her towel in front of yr hubby, then???!!
Even if yr bathroom is small, she can turn of the ventilation! With this weather, the shower shouldnt be too hot n the cloths would be a bit moist.... wat is the problem here??
Putting her cloth outside the bathroom??? NOWAY!! Wat if you or yr hubby just happen pass by the door n see her ???
IF dont want to get her cloths wet, ask her to put her cloths into a plastic bag lor..
I will fire her if she do that again...
I dont care whatever it is............
my maid did exactly the same thing before, I caught her when I returned home. The reason she told me is that : this is her habit after shower, wrap towel and get dressed in her room. But I told her that as long as she works for my family, she can't do that. This is not acceptable.
If I were you, I won't fire her. but I shall talk to her very very seriously.

SHE want something change (to be a mum), pls discuss w/ agt to negotiate w/ her.
Thanks all. My maid definitely wants to be a ma'am. I asked her to write down what I need to buy from supermarket - heavy & expensive items such that I can use credit card & send home by delivery. She asked me to buy eggs, butter, vermicelli ..... I feel like I am her maid!
I did not mention that last Sun, she came home at 10:55pm which I asked her to come by 8:30pm when we signed 1st contract 3yrs ago. She said it was rainy (last Sun night?!) & she came from Shumshuipo. I said both would not have kept her from home for 2.5hrs. I never said anything when she came back at 9:30pm as she at least cooked breakfast for the kids before she went. 11pm is definitely late. I spoke to Immigration about the towel incident & they asked me to write her a warning letter!
Talk to her patiently first. Ask her to dress well before leaving the bathroom. The reason is to protect her! She shouldn't undress herself in front of anyone especially men.
About shopping, really, sometimes they don't quite understand what you can help. State clearly to her directly!
Protect yourself and also your children at home by not giving her a warning letter at this moment.
Was it yan? If yan was Muslum, they cannot dress like this, even in their own house, they should cover up 包到冧. This was Muslum's rule to woman. Only they can wear little or not wear clothes was making love with the husband and bath. Their body cannot be seen by others except husband. Even husband other wives.
