Disappointing Strictness

When the household helpers (HH) finally left their Former Employer (FE), they heaved a sigh of relief. The time they spent with FE was a revelation and confirmation of rumors surrounding her personality. Initially, when HH found out they would be working with FE, they were excited, as that means being close to Undisputed Icon (UI). Not everyone is given a chance to be up, close, and personal with UI. Many stories have been heard about the kindness of UI and the horridness of FE.

As soon as HH landed in the household of FE, the realization of her strictness came quickly. FE told HH to be frugal with food. Their food was different from the food they prepared for FE and her family. Moreover, they were told to eat in the dirty kitchen and they were not allowed to eat in the main dining room. FE even has an inventory of the food in the main ref, and she keeps track of the number of hotdogs, eggs, etc. Thus, the idea of frying and eating such food for HH were farfetched because FE would know if the supply would lack one or two pieces. Even if a member of the family would request for hotdog or egg, they would have to ask permission from FE.

UI noticed the strictness of FE toward HH. UI questioned the treatment of FE, as they have much food and she has money to spend for extra grocery. FE, expectedly, told UI not to interfere with her household management and she should just concentrate on her career so that money would continue to flow. Nonetheless, whenever UI would have time at home, the helpers are treated well and able to eat delicious food. Sometimes, UI would be the one to prepare food for them.

All the bad memories with FE are now forgotten, as HH found a new family. Actress Mom (AM), as the new employer of HH, was shocked upon hearing the stories of HH about FE. With AM, HH are treated like family and AM is known to be among the showbiz personalities who are generous and kind regardless of the status of people. As far as her household is concerned, AM treats her help fairly. The food is the same for everyone, including HH. AM could only shake her head at realizing that even if FE raised UI, the latter’s attitude is very far from the former.
