Some friends of mine was shocked when i post a comment on Facebook that I have cleaning service available and it cost only a mere RM10 per hour.
It all began few months ago when I wanted to get an Indonesian maid for my house, just to take care of the kids and do house cleaning. I called up a few people and they give me a few more contacts, and it went on and on.. until one day, I managed to get in touch with an agent, who appreared to be sophisticated but really a nice lady, Kak Za.
The impression on the phone while we were coversing was enough to tell me that she is the kind of agent I dont mind dealing with, she doesnt charge impossibly high, and she can find a maid for me within 2 weeks, that was good enough for me.
The first maid came, somewhat earlier than 2 weeks, we were very happy to recieve the maid and welcomed her to my home.As usual, I begin teaching her what to do and so on the very same day she was here. Her name is Ros.
Then one day, my hubby got back from work and saw that Ros didnt turn off the rice cooker switch. He reminded me to let the maid know, so I did. To my amazement, Ros didnt like the comment and start blabbering about the kind of rice we cooked. She said that the rice we bought was given to dogs in indonesia, they will never eat it etc etc. I was speechless when she blatantly spoke in that tone and with such insults.
One thing leads to the next, and on the same afternoon, I called her agent Kak Za to replace her.
Kak Za came and took her away, and on the same day she gave me another maid, looks slightly older than Ros, and seems very quiet and reserved. We welcomed her into our house again.
After around 1 week or so, the maid was quite ok with the kids, and I was quite happy with her as well. She doesnt know much about cleaning but she was oky with the kids and I dont complain.
But after almost 2 weeks, she run off from the house, with my hubby in the house having shower and it was around 7:30pm (maghrib time). Before she took off, she broke into my room (force open the lock and knob), took my son's full piggy bank, took some of my clothes and handbags.
This one was really really bad. Hubby told me, we dont need another maid. I agreed.
That's it, we called Kak Za and asked for refund, she said ok and will pay in 2 weeks time after the replacement maid comes in.
Time passed and it turned into 2 months I think, that suddenly Kak Za called me and asked whether I have any friend wanting to hire a maid, that made me change my mind.
I was running out of staff at my baby shop coz the last one just left. What if I take the maid, give the same salary but get her to help with the shop?
What if I use the maid to clean other people's houses and generate income for them, and at the same time,. they are happy coz they get to get out of the house everyday?
Those ideas comes from my own experience wanting a by-hour maid to clean the house.\
That's how it started.
