Cold-blooded

Filipinos are very fortunate to have the privilege of affordable House help HH in their employ. HH's do make everybody's life a lot bearable and comfortable. More often, the work that they do for their masters is beyond the call of duty, even beyond the paycheck. Hence, it is but right to give these HH due attention and respect that they deserve.

Some HH 'though would prefer to work with rich families, perhaps thinking that they would get a better deal like higher salaries, substantial meals, better provisions. Some even dream to be employed by showbiz stars, getting thrilled to be living and breathing the same air with their celebrity masters, while rubbing elbows with their bosses' artista friends, too.

Oh well, nothing can be farther from the truth.

Unknown to most, working for some celebrities is not as fab as it sounds. Reportedly, some stars take on the stresses of their work to the hapless HH or assistants each time their emotions rule over them. We have heard they even hit their HH physically especially if they are under the influence of some substance. Also some HH are blinded that the big income of celebrities will translate to bigger pay for them. Argh, they better think again.

Contrary to perception, generally, celebrities' big paycheck does not guarantee the HH any leverage. In fact, most of them are even more tight-fisted than most ordinary people. Often, the tightwad is also the meanie.

Pretty Star PS is as busy as a bee with all sorts of projects coming her way. She is pictured as a model Mom who tends to her family despite her hectic schedules, giving them everything they need. Yet, at home with the HH, she is so mean as mean can be. Reportedly, PS' HH often go hungry - always eating late, and not eating enough.

HH who are friends with some Neighbors' Help NH tell them that not a day passes without them getting really hungry, because unlike other households where helpers have freedom in the kitchen, PS their boss does not allow that, for she has to know everything. It sounds like a food ration that is not even enough given the amount of work the HH have to do everyday.

Out of pity, some NH friends give them food, especially in the morning when HH has to finish tons of work first before they can eat breakfast. Oftentimes, it is PS drivers who have to clean the big cars in the morning who ask NH if they have something for them to eat - what a pity! Surely, these NH can relate and feel for their fellow and always are more than ready and willing to help.

And that's the talk of the town.

  8. If read it like this, super cruel ang dating.. Pero sa reality maraming ganyan.. Di man ganyan kaexagerated ang kwento pero hawig dyan ang nangyayari sa totoo lang..

    Mali din naman kasi na your helpers have freedom to eat/get what they want sa pantry mo,madami kasi naabuso.. At sa totoo lang di naman din yun kasama sa usapan.. Pero dapat pinapakain mo naman ng tama at sapat sa kung gaano sila kapagod everyday.. Kung di ka kumportable na yung kinakain mo eh kakainin din nila e di sana bigyan na lang ng budget sila na bahala sa food nila at kumain sila kung kelan gusto at sila ang magbubudget nun sa food nila lang..
    Sana both sides wag abuso.. Walang abusadong amo at walang abusadong helpers..

    1. True that.may mga helpers kasi na abusado like what happened to us.c helper namin ang umubos as in simot sa salad na prenepare ko para sana sa pagbisita ng ate ko sa house namin dahil fave nya yun.ang ending ice cream na lang.kaya di din masyado maganda na super free ang helpers sa bahay.dapat may control pa din pero wag naman to the point na gugutumin.bad yun!

    2. Agreed with everything you said

    3. When you say freedom sa kitchen, i dont think nman taht helpers will behave like they are the like family level na lahat pwede nila galawin. Perhaps what FP meant was freedom to eat everytime they feel hungry. just saying.

    4. Sa mga abusadong helpers, itali! Sa mga malupit na amo, layasan! At isumbong ke t!

    1. Tama. Di ba mayroon ng kasambahay laws. Baka pati suweldo hindi kumporme sa batas.

    1. mahirap maghanap ng bagong trabaho pero hindi ito excuse para maltratuhin ng amo ang maid dahil alam ng amo na kapit patalim na ang mga maids nya.

  23. tss. nakakadisappoint naman. surely, beauty is not everything.

    ReplyDelete
  24. eh di layasan ang amo na yan! bat ka magtitiis kung ganyang ginugutom nga kayo? im sure may mahahanap pang ibang amo as long as maganda record mo. kalurkey!

    ReplyDelete
  25. C. not to defend her pero tricky talaga magmanage ng household AT ang dami na rin ngayon na abusado na namamasukan na kasambahay. kung dati tatanda na sa household nyo yung helps para magsilbi, ngayon ang usapan pera pera na lang talaga. kung mangiwan ng amo akala mo ba walang ipinakitang maganda sa kanila. kaya ingat din sa panghuhusga.

    ReplyDelete
  26. galisin ka sana sa karamutan mo! yang mga kasambahay mo ang masasalubong mo pag dating ng araw pag bulusok mo 'day! sila naman ang nasa taas!

  29. Model mom, pwede ding si C na wife ni J, Pwede ding si C na wife ni Z

  30. Sa dinami dami nyang projects/endorsements, I don't think malaking kawalan sa income nya ang pakainin ang mga taong tumutulong sa pagaasikaso/alaga/linis/laba/luto para sa family nya. Grabehan ang ugali, akala ko mabait. kasing pangit ng boses nya yung ugali nya. tsk tsk.

  37. Ginagaya nya sa kanya. Laging gutom. Kaya ginugutom din mga household help nya. Kung gusto nya mag dyeta.. eh di sya na lng di ba?! Pisikal ang trabaho ng mga kasambahay and they need to eat well
