Recycle, reuse - OMG!

I used to have a kaypoh (busybody) Indonesian maid. I didn't ask her to monitor or spy on my wards, but she would always tell me what was happening in the house.

One day while I was having my late dinner, she came to sit beside me. She started telling me about the kids. Who did what, who and who quarrelled, who ate titbits in the bedroom.....

Then in a whisper, she asked if I had noticed Miao, a 19-year old girl from Beijing, didn't wash her underwear. Huh!? Seeing that I stopped eating with my chopsticks raised in mid air, she gleefully moved her chair closer to me.

"I notice that she seldom wash her underwear! You don't see her drying her underwear."

What!! Miao goes around not wearing her underwear!? How can!?

In my house, I have a written rule that every one has to wash their own underwear. It's one's personal item, and they cannot wash underwear in the washing machine, together with other clothings. So after their baths, they have to wash their underwear and dry them on the racks provided in their bedrooms.

Seeing the incredulous look on my face, my maid explained further,"I have been spying on her for the past two weeks. And guess what I found!? She wears her panty for 2 days, then turns it inside out and wear for another 2 days. Then on the 5th day, she washes it! So you only see her panty drying on the rack once a week."

ewwww....... turns her panty inside out and wear again!?

"Some more! Some more! Her bra hor. Wash once a fortnight only. You see her bra, all black black. "

I dropped my chopsticks and my jaws!!! sigh ............

  6. She went through Army training like we guys here in Singapore?

    Then again, I do know that their Unis have some military indoctrination, so maybe she learned it from there.

    You know, at field camps, some guys really do practice this, erm, rotating underwear tactic?

    Your son can get some lessons from her before enlistment. :-P

  15. sicarii,
    I heard from my brothers that NS guys do that on the field. I never for the life of me think a girl would do that. And it is not just this girl, there were a few. tsk tsk tsk........

    My son knows all the tricks, having lived with so many big brothers and sisters in the same house all these years.

  21. Judy,
    Yes, amazing, right? You would think these children are orphans or brought up by orang-utans in the jungle.

    Many of my students probably know about my blog by now. hehe.... I haven't blogged anything really bad... yet, but I will. I'm writing a book on these children and their parents. My experiences looking after other people's children for these past 20 years.

    Children and Parents from Hell

    Be shocked! hahaha....

  24. Hi sengkor,
    Yup, I would like to thank her for helping me save water.

    But she's not saving herself for whichever boy fancies her. I always wonder what the boys would think when they try to get intimate. muahahahaha......

    My this maid is such a busybody, she knows so much - my neighbours, my students from school, my parents' neighbours, my students' friends, all the maids in the neighbourhood and ..... the construction workers nearby. Fantastic stories here.

  32. everydayhealy,
    I dun have a keen sense of smell. I sorta lost my sense of smell some time back and if I could smell the 'salted fish', the smell is very bad!

    She uses perfume, bought duty-free at the airport. :) I saw the bottles of perfume on her dressing table.

  42. we used to think girls are better in housekeeping and personal hygiene .. but I do notice that some of them can be worst than guy ...

    ReplyDelete
  43. Kok,
    They are not weird, they are ill-disciplined. They are also lazy and devious. Such conduct is quite common among young people these days, not many people except their parents know.

    ReplyDelete
  44. hanneng,
    With couples having less kids, they tend to spoil them, resulting in such kids with behavioural problems.

    These young people are not stupid nor abnormal. They are products of a society where adults are too engrossed in making money, that they neglect the discipline of their kids.

  45. Looks like you need a panties and bras ... I mean ... hygiene inspector in your house!

  46. You must have a good relationship and paying good money to your maid! I just can't believe how disgusting those teenages are! First the used tampon, then wear the same underwear for a week, wash the bra once in two weeks... how much more disgusting things you maid knows? (Because I also want to know... :P)
