Re: isnt this being abit senseless

I can't help but feel that if you had enough sense to conduct yourself appropriately in the surroundings you are in, your husband wouldn't have had to say anything in the first place.

I've stayed with my inlaws when they had a teenage boy as a servant. Purposefully, he wasn't asked to do much in the kitchen and the tasks he was given were at times that no one else would need to go in there other than to get a drink sort of thing.

Re: isnt this being abit senseless

When ur hubby says dupatta sahi say lay ker jao, does he mean lapaitofy it like namaz or does he mean k bus galay say lipta wa (useless) na ho. And if it's the second one, and his family is conservative then don't u have to do that in front of ur FIL too? So u would be kind of used to it already? And ofcourse it's cumbersome to have one more person added to the list but hardly that big a deal. (unless ur used to having no dupatta all the time except when houseboy's in the house).

Hmm interesting advice. I think reach a compromise where both parties are happy with the outcomes :) What is the reason behind his decision? Is there reason to it? Look deep within yuo and you will find the answer. look to Allah(swt) and follow your heart you will be guided.

a kaamwala? i don’t know if someone asked already, but does this mean you have managed to dismantle your mil’s fav and all-powerful kaamwali??? :eek:

Re: isnt this being abit senseless

What's this got to do with the spiraling cost of cheese.

I dont understand the issue.

men in my family stay out of the way of the kaam wali..say she is cleaning the bedroom..they don't go there..if its time to clean the living room..they exit.

same thing applies to when the cleaning man comes in..we ladies leave the premsises too...

my mom has a cleaning man too....we wear dupattas when he is around. and leave the room he has to clean up.

its not rocket science.

My husband would do the same in this case and I think he's right. Zamaana bara kharaab hai. You have little girls so be careful about them too.

Ah I have this new kaamwali and still I have to wear dupatta at home to make sure she does too. She’s divorced so she has no sharam hayaa covering herself up despite reminders. I am getting her new shirts stitched with insanoan wali neckline now :smack:

:rotfl:

You reminded me of this maid hubby had when I met him. B/C of long hours, he didn’t have time for house work so she used to come 1x/week and do all the cleaning/laundry. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw her the 1st time. Jeans were waaay too tight and top was waaaay too low. :hmmm: That was her last time cleaning his house. :snooty:

A 19 year old servant boy? Looks like Immi's welfare system hasn't really taken of in KPK.

Re: isnt this being abit senseless

Re: isnt this being abit senseless

tell me about it, I have been through ones with low backs, see through shalwars, wayy too long chaaks, and have gotten darker loser clothes made specially for them.

Girls if u r firing all these pretty kamwalis, can u please msg their contact info to my begum. We are looking for maid. Please give good reviews too.

Just saying....

If it was not for these pretty maids working overtime 7 days a week, US unemployment rate would be 10+

Re: isnt this being abit senseless

OMG, So true PT. So true. Dil ki baat keh di… I have had a maid who was like uff…:smack:… I had to direct her again n again ke apnay kapray theek karo… I really can’t picture her here :smack: Eventually, my too much restrictions made her leave the work. She was (wese bhi) filling my previous maid’s space.. she was on maternity leave. So I had to hire this new woman & that’s why I couldn’t stop her coming… but still, she was… :eek:
