The thing with helpers is, once they earn a few thousand pesos, they'll go home and say that they want to rest. As if nakakapagod yung maghapon manuod ng tv.Ako, give up na ko, kahit anong bait mo sa kanila, they treat you shabbily pa rin.soloopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16694181139874275321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3122222538066364529.post-12539285902082230582007-07-12T07:44:00.000+08:002007-07-12T07:44:00.000+08:00hi belle, as of this writing, I have one helper na...hi belle, as of this writing, I have one helper na. she used to work for me before and went back again when she heard I'm looking for one. thanks for the visit.Wenchiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08140811022772135722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3122222538066364529.post-84799858808240098442007-07-12T03:20:00.000+08:002007-07-12T03:20:00.000+08:00hi rowena, it is really hard to find a good yaya o...hi rowena, it is really hard to find a good yaya or caretaker. i hope you find a good one who will stay with you for years. tsamba tsambahan lang talaga! <BR/><BR/>thanks for linking me up. i will do the same.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3122222538066364529.post-83549448680297519882007-07-08T07:10:00.000+08:002007-07-08T07:10:00.000+08:00Hi Connie.

And you're always a topic here at home every meal time. Anyway, it's really hard when we get so comfortable with the helpers, they thought they can do all they want at home. Umaabuso talaga sila. Di ko naman mapalayas. I just vent my anger by nagging my kids sometimes.Wenchiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08140811022772135722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3122222538066364529.post-10815433573993960102007-07-07T20:23:00.000+08:002007-07-07T20:23:00.000+08:00Our one and only helper has lately developed a bad...Our one and only helper has lately developed a bad TV habit. Parang minamadali lahat yung trabaho para mapanood lahat ng teleserye sa hapon starting with Eat Bulaga at lunch time.<BR/><BR/>I don't mind the TV watching (this is the boondocks so there's not much to entertain herself with and TV is better than gossiping with the neighbors' helpers) so long as work is done.<BR/><BR/>Mahirap din kasi walang katulong pero kung sa akin gawin yung ganun na inutusan mo na di pa gumalaw eh mabilis pa sa alas kwatro napalayas yun.

I consider myself very lucky because my yaya since I was a baby is still with me. She did not get married and has been living with us ever since. I treat her like a second mom. We had other helpers in the past, most of them related to my yaya in a certain degree. I like it that way because just in case we have a problem, we can always trace the family in the province. But still helpers come and go because of various reasons. Some find it hard to be separated from family, one wanted to pursue her studies, another wanted to start her own family.Heart of Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07542152478039483575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3122222538066364529.post-7499023215098010272007-07-02T16:34:00.000+08:002007-07-02T16:34:00.000+08:00hi ferdz,thanks for visiting this site. you're rig...hi ferdz,<BR/>thanks for visiting this site. you're right, ganyan problems ng mga mommies nowadays, to find a good reliable helper (na rare na yata).Wenchiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08140811022772135722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3122222538066364529.post-70311186709672045002007-07-01T14:57:00.000+08:002007-07-01T14:57:00.000+08:00Ang hirap talaga humanap ng househelp na mapagkaka...Ang hirap talaga humanap ng househelp na mapagkakaitwalaan at talagang marunong sa gawaing bahay mas lalo na sa pag-alaga sa bata.
