Everything goes
Under the epidemic, maids have become a scarce species in short supply!
For many Singaporean families with elderly people and children, maid is a very good choice for "value for money". Before the outbreak, it wasn't difficult to hire a maid in Singapore. However, the epidemic has struck, international travel has been restricted, and there has been a serious shortage of supply and demand for maids in Singapore.
Many Singaporean employers, in order to get a powerful helper, do not hesitate to pay more economic costs, but also pay more time costs to hire maids from abroad. It is also lucky to invite a maid who works with peace of mind, and if you invite a maid who uses the employer as a springboard, the employer really wants to cry without tears.
Macaroni Xiaoning encountered such a troublesome matter, was used by the maid as a springboard to work in Singapore, and paid thousands of Singapore dollars in vain, how to think how to hold back.
Dual employees with two babies,
Longing for the maid to come to the rescue
Xiao Ning is a second-child mother, two cute babies in the family, the eldest is less than two and a half years old, and the youngest is just 1 year old. Because of the epidemic, it is not convenient for domestic parents to come to Singapore to help. Xiaoning and her husband have to go to work, and it is indeed very difficult for dual workers to bring two children without help. Xiaoning sent both children to kindergarten, but because of the increasing number of confirmed cases in the Singapore community, Xiaoning was not at ease to send her children to kindergarten.
Although both of them worked at home, the daily routine of carrying the two babies and having to work made Xiao Ning tired. Xiao Ning decided to hire a maid. Xiaoning, who has no experience in hiring maids, also did a lot of homework beforehand, and finally decided to hire An Indonesian maid.
After the online interview, Xiaoning selected an Indonesian maid with three years of experience, and the reason why she chose this maid was because she mentioned in the interview that she liked children very much, and Xiaoning liked this. However, because the maid was in Indonesia at that time, Xiaoning went through the formalities through the intermediary, and also had to bear the maid's home notification isolation fee, as well as the maid's loan, intermediary fee, etc. Although the cost is not low, Xiao ning feels that knowing that he can hire the right helper, these costs are also worth it.
Finally waited for the maid to come,
Although it is not satisfactory,
But there are still expectations
From the beginning of the interview, to waiting for the maid to enter, and then to the maid's isolation and officially coming to XiaoNing's home, Xiaoning has gone through a long wait. This 29-year-old maid, looking clean and tidy, Xiaoning had a good first impression of her. She held the idea of changing her heart for her heart, hoping that the maid could stay at home and work well, and she would treat the maid well.
Because of the serious epidemic in the community, Xiaoning did not send the children to the kindergarten for several weeks, and the younger son cried when he saw the maid because he had not seen anyone for a long time. But the two-and-a-half-year-old daughter seemed to like the aunt who had just arrived, pulling her to play with the toys with her.
Xiao Ning said that the maid made meals with a general taste, but it was still quite smart, and in the few days she taught the maid a few fast stir-fry dishes, and the maids learned once, and the basic second word could be made by herself. Xiao Ning felt that after slowly adapting, this maid would be a good helper and felt very happy.
But what Xiao Ning did not expect was that less than a week after coming, the maid told Xiao Ning that she felt that Xiao Ning's son did not like her, and if Xiao Ning wanted to send her back to the intermediary, she had no problem at all. When Xiao Ning heard this, she thought that the maid's mind was a little sensitive, and hurriedly explained that the child did not dislike her because she was not familiar with her, and he did not want to send her back to the intermediary, hoping that she would stay at ease.
After a few days of work, I quit the drum,
Employers make no mistakes but lose thousands of dollars
But what Xiao Ning did not expect was that since then, the maid has begun to hang Erlang as a bad job. One morning at 5 o'clock in the morning, Xiao Ning got up from bed to go to the toilet, and saw the maid playing with her mobile phone without sleeping. I am also absent-minded when I have children during the day. Xiao Ning tentatively asked her if she hadn't slept well last night. The maid cried bitterly, saying that she had not slept well all night.
Xiao Ning didn't know where to start with this bad sleep, because the maid had just arrived and was not familiar with her, she did not dare to let the child sleep with her, why did she sleep badly? But Xiaoning did not directly accuse her of not sleeping and playing with her mobile phone. Thinking about the maid may also have to have a process of adaptation.
Just when Xiao Ning couldn't understand the maid's thoughts, the maid suddenly proposed to Xiao Ning to return to the intermediary, because she didn't like the child, and what made Xiao Ning sad was that the maid said that from the first day she came to Xiao Ning's house, she didn't like it here.
Since this was the case, Xiao Ning could not force her to stay. But Xiaoning is very confused, why did she say that she liked children very much during the online interview, but after coming, it was completely different, was Xiaoning just a springboard used by the maid? Did this maid just use Xiaoning to come to Singapore and then pick an employer?
Xiaoning reflected his doubts to the intermediary, although the intermediary said that he understood Xiaoning's difficulties. But all that can be done is to refund the intermediary fee to Xiaoning. As for the isolation fees, testing fees, maid loans, etc. spent by Xiaoning in the early stage, Xiaoning can only consider herself unlucky.
On the day of sending the maid back to the agency, Xiaoning took two children alone, thinking back to the money, time and expectations she paid, Xiaoning really wanted to cry without tears.
Xiao Ning didn't understand, when encountering such a situation, could only think that he was unlucky? Is there any other way to defend your rights? Macaroni fans, quickly poke the "message" to Give Xiao Ning an idea!
