In her post, the employer said that the family had been kind to their helper, and the employer would even help with some of her daughter’s work. The woman wrote that she and her family had even taken their maid overseas. “If i feedback to her to work properly, she makes a scene and starts calling her friends and argues and talk very loudly”, the woman wrote.
She added that while looking for a suitable helper, she needed her current maid to stay for another 15 days to a month and asked if others had any suggestions.Earlier this year, another foreign domestic helper told her employers she was unhappy working for them and asked for a transfer after they refused to lend her money.
