I love the complete meltdown that some go into at the prospect of going on holiday with the kids and *no maid*... How will we manage?! Can we not take her?!

Anyhow, maybe some mums feel that these shopping trips/ outings with the maid in tow are part of their "quality time" with their children... even if the brood is 5 paces behind and in the care of the helper.

I love the EW...'but the maid enjoys hanging out with me and shopping with me'

No she ****ing doesnt, she hates you, your snotty little shit kids, your pompous fat bastard of a husband who secretly horbors a desire to **** her. The need for you to use her as some sort of status symbol to your overweight fat useless coffee club bored wifes.

****ing pathetic..

ps i have a maid.

i just don't get these people...with shopping, i can, maybe, half see it, though wouldn't do it myself unless i was taking my helper to buy something specific for her, but the bleedin doctor, can't you even take your kid on your own...geez...

MM, xx

ps, sorry, i know this is probably more suitable for ew...
So, if they were going somewhere else afterwards (maybe joining you in the queue to buy your maids a present), should the woman you saw at the doctors have left her maid in the car for an hour? Hard to call without knowing any of the details, no?

yeah, that's obviously it...and the mum must have hurt her arms which is why the maid was giving the kid its drink and snack and entertaining it whilst they waited...whilst mum sat there reading a magazine...

Yep - thank god you were there to cast a disparaging eye before returning home to post it on the internet, perhaps as your maid looked after your kids and cooked your dinner. Assumption's a bitch eh?
