Yup, this morning the Princess (and I) fired the maid. She's only been with us about 2 months now, but we suspected that she had been getting into the cane / BBacardi rum / and the Southern Comfort. Not that the levels in the bottles had dropped, but that the bottles had been moved and turned and not put back where they were put by me the night before. She was on strict instruction not to clean / dust / wipe / touch the bar, and I set it up so that if she did we would know. And she did and we caught her out.
Now it's not like I care about the booze, but if she's "stealing" the booze, what's to stop her getting into our our other things, and making little things disappear.
Well, we paid her off, explained why, and she's gone.
It's so difficult getting good help these days, no matter what you pay. And being able to trust them is the least you expect. Considering that they don't find work so easily, you would think they would do what it takes to keep their jobs once they get one.
So, we are maidless, and looking.

Wellwho will drink now ? I can only visit every 6m or so ????
I'll keep the 3 bottles we think she drank from, and topped up again with water, just for you.
Hmmm, be careful, many "coincidental" robberies/housebreaking occur just after the dismissal of hired help.
Many consider it justifiable, to boost their retirement fund.
Hey Monster - howit? I hear you, and for the record, she still works / lives next door!
Her retirement fund? Sorry bro, she drank that up! What i might consider though, is helping her move to a remote location (no pun intended), like Harare!
