Day 4 - Going berserk

Mom told me "now I finally understand why we read in the papers about employers abusing their maids. So gong...."
Apparently, she said the translation didn't help much. She was still as blur as before, and worst still -after clear instructions from mom ; she still fought over the bathroom with brother, Pauline & father this morning. And they were all getting ready for work. Mom said she spent 20 minutes standing still infront of the water boiler; doing nothing and when everyone comes out she also starts to fight with them.

I knew what mom meant - coz' I don't even understand what she say. By comparison, her standard of English is far worst from KZ's.

They've taught her how to use the pot a few times but still....
Dad taught her how to water the plants. Okay, first of all she's filled up the whole bucket when they told her half bucket. And then she had problem carrying the bucket (so skinny). When he taught her how to sprinkle water on the leaves after watering them. Guess what she did?? She cleaned the leaves one by one. ?!?!?!?!

There's more to come I'm sure in the 2 weeks to come.

There's a high probability of them changing her. And it's actually quite poor thing, she came here for a short time and get sent away, then she must pray hard that she gets employed by someone else.. if not she has a short fate of working here.
