Pissed
Fucking pissed. The 2 words to describe me at this very moment.
Yes I can be the perfect angel, Miss Goody Two Shoes in other words, an introvert at times.. a somewhat snob or the meanest bitch alive.. and I doubt you'd even wanna be anywhere near me when that happens. Versatile.. perhaps not.. tempremental, a definate yes.
The thing that got me irked would be the maid. Has been working for us for 3 months now and I can bet my ass that she has it easy.. probably one with the easiest job ever. Basically her main task would be to accompany grans and yeah the itty bitty stuff like basic household chores and all that it would take her would probably be a mere 2 hours max. No we do not underpay her, neither do we underfeed her.. in fact she gets a whole lot more.. and never once did we ill-treat her or even discriminate her.. far from it.. she has been in fact been treated more like one of the family... she eats at the same table as us.. we never do cast her aside, she's also allowed to eat whatever we get as and when she wants to.. the only thing we've asked of her is to take good care of grans and help her out in whatever she wanted to do. Clothes I've given her tons.. and mind you they're in very good condition and yes branded ones at that.. I even gave her a new bag of mine that I've used for barely 5 times. She gets to sleep at 9pm and get up at 8am or 9am at times, she's even allowed to watch her indon dramas at night and never once have we reprimanded her for anything. We are afterall humans and noone is perfect. As compared to her previous employer who kept her up till late and insisted that she woke up at dawn and screamed at her for every little detail, one would have thought that she'd show more appreciation. The way she repays us was a whole lot different. Knowing my gran's sleeping patterns and all, she takes uses gran's mobile to make international calls.. to Indonesia actually.. to her bf.. yes its a fact that she'll miss her loved ones.. all she could have done was asked for permission to use the phone but no. She sneaks out of the room with gran's mobile at 3am and uses it to call.. not once but twice but several times over the past month and has chalked up about a hundred on the calls.. and to think we trusted her. Yes dad scolded her once.. then after he took time to explain to her and adviced her not to do so again and all was well.. we even forgot about the whole issue.
Today however, it was by chance that I answered the phone and on the other line was her bf.. firstly I was pissed by the fact that she took things for granted and secondly that she gave him our number. He called and told me straight, "I want to speak to Darsih" so I asked, to whom am I speaking with, again he told me he wanted to speak to her, even asking where she was. FYI it's my residential line that you're calling to and one thing that I can never tolerate is someone calling my line and either asking me who I am or telling me what I should or should not do, its basic courtersy, bear that in mind. I told him that firstly it was my line and secondly he did not have the rights to call as and when he wanted to and never to call this number again, this time he sounded softer and told me that he was her bro and requested to speak to her, I hung up, yes I'll be a bitch whenever I want to. Barely 10 seconds later he called back with yet again the same lines.. this time he told me "I'm her father". Do I really sound like an ignorant little 10 year old to you? For goodness sake even a kid could tell it was the same person. Again I told him never to call back and this time he replied, "I want to speak to her"..and so I asked what the problem was and he kept quiet which obviously irritated me, again I asked the same question, again he repeated that he wanted to speak to her and later on uttered a nevermind even had the cheek to sound pissed with me and when I told him that he was never to call this number and if he understood, he replied a blunt "No".. the nerve of some.. being the hot tempered person I am naturally I told him off and slammed the phone down on him.. sometimes I wonder whether they're too back dated or plain dumb.. we have our ways of getting his number, which I already have.. I'm refusing to speak to the bitch at the moment I'll give myself time to cool down, after which, the situation will then be given to the parents to handle.. whether or not we'll switch maids.. the decision will come... for I think we've been far too nice to her.
