My New Maid


Sunday, 31st Oct 2010


Waited for more than a year

Chosen 3 in all, one after another

First an Indonesian

Didn't work out due to difference in 2 governments


Second one, chosen a Filipino

Phone interview followed by online chat

Also didn't work out, her father fell sick

She had to take care of him ...


Next, chosen a 21 year old Indonesian

No experience at all, much younger

Luckily, she's a fast learner

And well, she smiles ..... :-)


Once I got her flooring wax finish to paint

on a few wooden planks

When I got home later,

Nearly pengsan!


All wooden furniture ... she painted

Haphazardly of course, it takes professionals

to do a good job mah (Sigh)

There goes my kitchen cabinets

My wooden giraffes, benches

My antique chest of drawers too!


Oh well ... gave her a little lecture

She was about to rain

My heart softens

After all, she just wanted to please me


Ended with : I suka kalau u rajin

Tapi lain kali u mesti tanya dulu ya?

Terima kasih banyak banyak lah

I bukan nak marah u, cuma terkejut sahaja


Close both eyes lah, what to do

Thinking back, it pokes a few of my funny bones

HA HA HA ....

Well, well .... at least I get to tell a funny tale!
