Onemore52 Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 If we didn't have the three strike rule then we are no better than them, because don't forget there are rules here and you just cannot sack someone because they are dumb as dog sh.t, it just does not work with the government agencies.

IMHO the professional drivers are the worst, at least in my area. Resume - I can make a u-turn on any street, no matter the width or traffic - I will double/triple park, blocking all traffic, until you are ready to leave - If you are in a hurry, I will counterflow against the traffic and if we are not killed, you will be on time. etc., etc. You nailed it, they do not give a damn.

fillipino_wannabe Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Already posted before I had a bad experience with a maid. Stole money and started a fire to try and burn the evidence, nearly burned the whole house down lol. Not worth taking the risk of having uneducated people living in poverty in your house in my opinion. Only takes 1 to smash their head on the wall and tell the police you hit them and it's game over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Support Old55 Posted March 13, 2019 Forum Support Posted March 13, 2019 Guys please lighten up a bit on the sweeping generalizations. Not all Filipinos are the same. Many Members here have had difficulties with help in their home. Others have done OK. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onemore52 Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 So now I have a new strategy, whilst driving into or back from town, I turn on my best music very loud and drive slower than the tricyles and the jeepneys on the very narrow road that we are on, if you cannot beat them than play their same game, driving at 20kph and sometimes less because they want to conserve fuel, I am in no hurry.

Well good luck to them and I really mean that, but if I had listened to a good friend of mine a few years back who told me "Don't do it" I would not have the same angst as I have after four of them who all they wanted to do was a have a free ride at our expense for no effort from then, zilch, nought, nothing just wanted to do nothing and get paid for it.

Others have done OK. that's why I said 'not worth the risk', I'm sure most are fine but even if 95% are great then I'm not going to take the 1/20 chance that someone tries to burn my house down or worse lol.
