Today in Maid News...

here's a roundup of what has been happening.

last friday and saturday, our dinner was not exactly well done.
she cooked 3 persons share of food..for 5 people on friday and on saturday..oh dear..it got pretty bad. i wasn't home to eat that day but i eventually i had to buy some dessert home to feed my poor family
they had veggie, chicken curry AND bak kut teh
weird eh?
as if that wasn't odd enough..the soup was super peppery..the bag of herbs and spices probably exploded..
and the chicken curry..according to my sisters, it was pastey, super spicy to the point of bitterness and it didn't taste like curry coz she didn't put in any curry leaves. come to think of it..i don't think she even added any coconut milk..
-_-
so sad right?
she says she knows how to cook curry..i think not.
it's either that or she doesn't taste her own cooking..

after 2 days of not particularly fantastic food, my mum gave up and took us all out to dinner.
i don't blame her. she loves curry and she was horrified by the chicken curry attempt. she was disappointed that she didn't bother consulting anyone about the recipe.

i really wonder why she behaves the way she does.
for example, she picked up a call from my mum on sunday to tell her to come downstairs at 6pm with me and my sisters. she hung up the phone and went straight for her room.
i only found out when my mum called again alittle after 6..wondering where we were.

so anyway my mum finally made her decision yesterday.
we're replacing our maid.
it's about time really..coz none of us trust her and nothing she does is making us feel otherwise.

my mum is also convinced she sneaked off to ghim moh again. either that or she genuinely took the loop service bus from the wrong direction, realised her mistake, panicked, got off the bus and boarded the next bus from across the road.
coz yesterday she had to top up the fare card for her and since she was there, she checked the transaction history and found 2 deductions, 20+ minutes apart (one at about 1:30 and the other at 1:50), for trips on the loop service bus last monday. and the odd thing is she remembers that the maid called to inform my mum she was home before 2pm that day.

liar.
