Another Maid Story

I hate to gossip about my maid in my kids' blog but this time, I really want to vent out my anger. I just caught my maid pouring unboiled filtered tap water into the kettle that we put boiled drinking water. I confronted her and she kept denying. I was walking into the kitchen when I saw her using a jug pouring tap water into the kettle but my maid kept saying that she was only using the jug to remove an insect from the pot of kettle. What a liar! I saw the water still dripping out from the water filter. I asked her why can't she use a spoon to fish out the insect and she told me it's easier to use a jug! What nonsense! Don't you think it's easier to spoon out an insect from the kettle than to put in a huge jug into the kettle? I am fuming mad coz my 2 toddlers and my 5-month old baby drinks the kettle of water. Now I am beginning to wonder if Baby C's frequent pooing is caused by drinking unboiled water! I am also worried that the unboiled tap water that she's been drinking all these while could be one of the causes of her frequent UTI. She's already got a kidney reflux, coupled with unboiled water, that could just be too harsh on her guts and body. I'm just speculating here, I may be wrong, I hope I am wrong.

This is not the first time I caught her doing similar acts. I also caught her a few times putting un-filtered tap water into our water tumbler used for cooking, which I have reprimanded her. I'm sure you all know how dirty the water in our country is. Even with a water filter, the water is still dirty sometimes.

Looks like a leopard really never changes its spots. What am I going to do with her? I've given her too many chances and I think she is taking advantage of my leniency towards her. Perhaps I should just let my maid agent handle her for they know the best how to treat such cases.
