Do you have an experience with a Bad Housekeeper/s?

I had an experience like this once but not she wasn't that bad. Though I'd still say she was bad because she didn't do her job at all. I thought she cleaned the bathroom but when I took a look at it, it was as if she was just splashing water around for no reason whatsoever. So I just payed her and got rid of her ASAP.

We had a 'bad' housekeeper and a bad 'nanny' once. The housekeeper does her job fine. She does the chores effectively and efficiently. The 'bad' thing about her though is she frequently goes outside of the house, then comes back with her boyfriend. And they do stuff lovers do. You get the point. lol. It was just me and my sister who were in our house that's why she manages to bring her boyfriend without our mom's knowledge. When she found out though, she immediately fired her because she thought that our housekeeper is desecrating our house. lol. About our nanny, well she often hits us and scolds us. And of course, this infuriated my mom and the nanny got booted out our house. =)

Hi, mac_mac1221. I have never had an housekeeper before in my home. But I have had an experience with the housekeeper at the motel before. He had the attitude like he did not want to come in and clean my room. So, I told him that I don't make the schedule. I mean, this man seemed so inconsiderate. He did not want to clean my room for nothing... So, I just decided to just clean up my own room without asking them. His behavior was very rude! I spoke to the manager about this and she said that this is his job to clean up the rooms. That is what he is getting paid for. I know that after this, the manager probably kept a strict eye out on him because of what I told her. Sometimes I would leave and come back to my room and I did not have any clean and fresh towels.... I don't know what the deal was.. But I told the manager about this too. It is a shame that people have these jobs and they don't want to work. They should give their job to someone that is willing and eager to work..

Hi Mac_mac, Just very recently I fired and househelp who's been with me for over two years. I didn't have any problem with her at first, she knows her job and does it well. But later on I noticed she wasn't as efficient anymore. Worse, I found out she sneaks out at night and comes in very late. Then my kids told me that there were times when they were from school and no one was at home. I got really angry, and so I fired her.

Yeah I remember when I was a kid, in our village house my father hired this housekeeper, servant. He would get paid like a good amount but then he wouldn't do his work. We had cows and we would ask him to milk them but he would just go there and sit and listen to his old radio. My father would pull his arm and would make him do the work. Actually he wasn't a hardworking guy. So my father had to make him quit the job.

Hi Mac-mac, Growing up, I've had my share of nannies since my mom was working. What my parents did though is choose someone who is at least a distant relative. Well, like most of you, I've had my share of nannies that would spank us. They did the housework just fine though. The worst nanny that we had, was my nephew's nanny. She took things that weren't hers and there was this incident that she did not turn over any money that I asked her to give to our neighbor. It was stupid of me to trust her but eventually, we all found out and I really hated her. She was fired and sent back to the province. She was one big headache for all of us. grr...

hi mac_mac1221, Oh yes. When I was still young we used to have this bad housekeeper that was also our neighbor. She was the one who do our laundry and that includes ironing/steaming of clothes. Then one day my mom caught her (housekeeper) wearing her blouse. LOL! My mom asked her where did she bought it and she replied saying it was a gift from a friend. Then, my mom checked some of her clothes and she realized that most of her new and expensive under garments were missing. I was still in grade school back then and all I can remember was my mom fired her immediately after serving almost a month with us.

We always encounter this kind of house keepers. They are acting all mighty and high and so demanding. We treat them like they are part of the family but they become so abusive. What we do? we fired them.

yes I do. my last maid was fired because of the gossip she made about my family so its very stressing on us keep telling stories about my family which she should not be doing. I treat her just like a family but the fact is she forgetting who she was and whats her job in the house. I treat her as one member of the family but she keeps on going out that's the reason why she get fire.
