This thread has got to be a joke, right?

People seriously think it's okay to pay their maids less than 1000QR/month?

Wow, I'd never want to work for you.

All my western friends pay their maids AT LEAST 1500/month, generally more. They work only 6 days, get Friday totally off to do anything they want, and only work 8 hours a day.

Why did slave labor become so entrenched in certain families here?

It is criminal that certain people think that their culture is equal to, or better than, the western culture, when they demonstrate no concern or caring for their fellow human. They just treat them like slaves.

Disgusting.
