Housemaid horror

I was at Parkway earlier since there was an Isetan sale going. The place was thronged with uncles, prams, childrens and more aunties than ever. Buay ta han. Those middle aged ladies are the worst lot of shoppers. They scrambled for the correct size on the clothings or chucked the unwanted stuffs right in front of the pile that you're looking at.



When I was at Watson's looking at some shower gels, I overheard *again* this middle aged ladies (50s and above that's somewhat I considered middle aged, ho ho ho ) was scolding her maid in front of the cosmetic department. How embrassing is that! I can see the maid was looking rather upset with face looking down. Why can't that auntie bring her to one side and talk to her instead? She is not A kid. Afterall, even if she could have really done something wrong but there could be better way of solving the issue besides raising her voice in front of the crowd?



That's the thing about living in Singapore. You don't have (huma) rights. People can go all the way and discriminate your looks, your culture, your race and everything. So if someone says your mole is ugly in front of you, then that's just too bad. Live with it or do something about it (eg, mole curettage??)

Recently, one of my girlfriends decided to ask her maid to pack her bag and leave for good. The reason was that she has been using phone to call back to her own country during wee hours in the morning. Rather than getting pissed over it, my gf would rather send her away for good. Afterall, baby's safety is her first priority in regardless of what happened.
