What's New - We went to Gelang Patah to 'pick up' our New Maid i.e. the one who would be replacing the ever-so-reliable Bibik Sumi once she leaves for Batam in early April. At the outset, the new maid a.k.a. Bibik Siti looked like a pleasant lady, albeit a bit talkative at times. I certainly hold no grudges against talkative maids but sometimes, I do believe one must know when to stop talking and when to ponder. Nonetheless, I was glad that she exceeded my personal expectations and thankful to God that she is quite religious and was ever so willing to teach Adam Al-Quran Recital.
What's News - Bibik Siti sat down with Aidee and I upon reaching our domain at Permas Jaya. We discussed the crucial points i.e. the salary, the stay, the scope of work, the do's and the dont's. I was kind of relieved to know that she can cook, she loves kids, she treated Adam well (at the outset) and she is happy with our financial and logistical arrangements... Glad, we sorted out a few things...
What I Didn't Realize - You will never realize someone's contributions until the day he or she is about to leave... :-)
