A Filipino domestic worker says that after working for the same employer in Hong Kong for 15 years, she is becoming fed up with the woman’s weird habits and the mess other family members make in their apartment.
Becca, 49, said she could not understand why her employer takes her meals at the coffee table instead of the dining table, and why she sleeps in the living room instead of her bedroom, reports sunwebhk.com, a news portal for Filipinos in Hong Kong.
The woman would take a nap in the afternoon, and then in the evening, she would suddenly bake cookies, so Becca has to stay up late to clean the kitchen.
Becca is also responsible for caring for her boss’s two children, now in their early 20s, who bring their boyfriends to the apartment, where they have meals together. Becca said that because of this, her workload had increased the point that she has thought about quitting.
Becca’s employer said her two children would soon leave and have their own places, which will lighten the maid’s workload, as she will only need to serve her employer and her husband.
Becca has decided to stay with her current employer and endure the workload as she is the breadwinner for her family in the Philippines. She said that because her husband has no permanent job, she is the one funding her children’s college education.

Nagiging malakas tau dhil sa determination ng isip mind over body kumbaga pero in d end lahat ng pang aabuso natin sa ating katawan babalik yan.buti sna kung forever ka sa amo at sa pagtanda mo cla mag sisilbi sau . we trust God na hindi tau pbabayaan, hindi cnabi ng Dios na tiisin mo khit dmo kaya kunti gamitin natin utak na mag disisyon ng tama pra sa ating sarili..just saying.

Thats the sad part of being a helper..always wrongfully accused…employers are always suspicious of everything
. Better not hire a helper if u dont know how to trust… Seldom u can find an employer who gives full trust with her helper.
But good for her that her employer have the guts to say sorry… Some dont even do it after they wrongfully accused their helper
Tiis lng kabayan… ganyan iba chinese my pgka sadista… kung di kya mghanap… marami amo kysa nman mgkasakit ka…
