Madam v/s the maid
Jealous Abu Dhabi wife packs off 'pretty' maid
An Arab housewife rushed back to a domestic service hiring office in Abu Dhabi and requested a replacement of her Filipina housemaid, fearing her husband could be attracted by her good looks.
The unnamed woman told the office that the maid she has just hired “pays too much attention to her appearance, cleanliness and make- up,” according to the Arabic language daily Alittihad.
“She told us that she does not want a housemaid of this type as her husband could be attracted to her,” the paper said, quoting the office’s manager Nuhad Al Laji.
“We tried to persuade her to keep that maid but she insisted on a replacement…we had no choice but to provide her with another one.”

they can do an initial interview or just wait for the agency to send the maid. It is completely on the right of the client (employer) to put the maid also on "probationary (read: observation)" period and asked for replacement for whatever valid reason deemed "valid". In this case, I think the reason is "valid".
Again, if they want INDUSTRIOUS, beautiful and presentable maid, they should get a Filipina. If they want INDUSTRIOUS only, then they have other options. LOL!
Well, better to be safe than sorry...But she could have reviewed her profile with pic and specified in advance that she wanted an unattractive, matured and efficient maid rather than going through the hassle of returning and replacing her:)
i had a maid who was more concerned with her looks and yes she was secretly wearing make up....and guess wat she was a ********....she was luring the drivers in d neighborhood!!we caught her red-handed and she was send off!!lucky fr her we din't do a police case1
Why don't she get a male maid. Problem solved! ^^ Now where to find a man that actually cleans for a living....hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
me2you, How can you be sure that Husband Hired her???
Always put the blame on Husband.....
for sure the husbAnd hired her :(
Indeed Flor, you just can't blame Beauty for all the Mistakes!!!
None. She should get another nationality!
Ahhh, Wife is one Insecure being!!!
I thought Relationships are about trust & honesty......
So, if she wants to return the maid coz the latter is pretty, she is the employer, she has the right to.
I'm not against the pretty girl/maid but its better to be cautious then get raped or be the cause of a broken family/marriage.
The wife does not trust her husband's resistance to temptation - small minded beyond belief! What a spineless man - and an even more spineless wife - get a life you worthless b**ch!
You are too kind and domesticated to require a maid ...
is the first time i heard that a maid is wearing a make-up... :(
no need to let the enemy get into your line or you regret and further more women hate competition and they fear
Yep I agree...I suppose it's the "returns" the publications love, when they give into public expectations!
Looks like when talking of this part of the world the topics on maids would be a clear winner so far generating interest among the readers followed by pages of opinion is concerned ...:)
@FatimaH...perfect... 10/10...:)
Fathima,
''....some publication love......''..
for whom they do it all....it is the 'public' expectaions they are responding to..I believe.
LOL, of course YOU do!!!
I do ;)
No-one wants a maid who's prettier than them.
The story is not worth publishing in AL-Ittihad news! It's her life,her house, and she's free to do whatever makes her comfortable in her own heaven.Maybe her husband is a decent man and she is aware of that,yet she would prefer a certain personality and look in her domestic helper.Just like when some work places accept only ladies with good look..etc.
Seems more like the maid wasn't doing the tasks allocated to her and was instead paying more attention to herself, and that the whole husband bit was added to make things more scandalous! I'd treat such news with a great deal of skepticism as we all know how some publications love playing on the public's imaginations with sensational stories such as this. I mean you got "jealous wife" "from Abu Dhabi" "pretty maid" "attracting husband"....wow! What a winner. *sighs*
What killed her?
I remember a few years ago a colleague in London hiring a young Au-pair from Norway. His wife was non too pleased and did away with her.
But I wonder what she (the maid) will be replaced with?
Indeed Brit, I guess she knows her husband better than anyone else.
It's her choice. I'm sure many wives would agree with her..
Lol.. I might do the same :). Imagine staying in 1 house with that kind of maid :).
that's a good precaution for the wife to do...than being sorry later. At least she has done something for her husband not to be exposed to occasions of sin!!!
