When your housemaid is an Emarati!
OK, Ladies..
It's been easy for you to kick the housemaids coz they came from far away and in need of few dirhams from you...All they can get is about 10 or 20 dirhams per day while you treat her life a donkey. Now tell me!. What will happen if no more housemaids from abroad and that you have to employ Emaraitis to do your house work!. How much do you think you will have to pay them?. How well would you treat them?. Would you not eat and share things with them?. Wouldn't you treat them like family member?. I keep on wondering when such time comes :confused: I'll be the first one to apply for a part time job but on one condition... :) |

I'd love to see what would happen if your Mum saw this......she'd open a big can of whoop-ass on your head!
Anyway, you wouldn't have to pay them anything because they wouldn't show up. |

Far from it which is why most of the maids prefer to work wt western families then local ones. I have seen locals treat their maids worse than they would do to their donkeys believe me. Besides most of us are used to not having maids back at home so its no big deal really. Western women are used to doing their own housework, take care of their families, do other jobs and go out for a laugh. We are not that bored u see. On the other hand local women spend their time in beauty spas and doing shopping. They r the ones who have maids doing things for them. I wonder how THEY would behave if they had locals do the dirty jobs for them. Somehow I cannot picture that happening anytime in the future :o |

So yes, I understand maids running away from them - they're only human in the end and there's only so much you can take! I on the other hand DO treat my maid/gardener like they were family and I am proud of it but would never ask them for breakfast in bed - thats just a little bit sick/wierd if you ask me. :)
South african still believe in white supremecy, but no the blacks have taken control of what belongs to them, so these south african whites are leaving the country and coming to places like the Gulf. |
