I had been fortunate enough to locate a suitable-looking replacement soon after our maid Jane 'absconded'. BUT our agent was offline when her profile was posted up by the agency. By the time she responded to my message, the profile was already listed as taken. FORTUNATELY the first taker didn't work out and hurrah, it was green light for us! We settled back to wait out the 3 months or so it would take for processing. THEN after all that time, it seemed the new person would arrive right before or smack in the middle of our Bangkok trip. Come on... how often are we away?? Haha. Still, worst case she would be able to stay at the agency first (for a fee).
We left for Bangkok thinking we would have a maid again upon our return.
HOWEVER. In the middle of our holiday, I received a call from the agency... our new maid had gotten pregnant and everything was off. Right when all her documents were ready, on the eve of her flying to Malaysia!
Oh no. We are still kakak-less
Yay, fingers crossed 🤞 but if this time something else interrupt again, it may be the universe hinting that SE and JE are grown up d so just having hourly helpers to clean the house should suffice.
ReplyDeleteIf hubby had been fine, that would be easier. For now he needs help on some tasks and someone around in case he gets seizures which require emergency medication.
