Maid's way

Was it really that bad?

That I didn't want to be a maid? I was looking forward to that job..but then the woman who told me about the job didn't tell me the whole truth about it. She said, by 12pm in the afternoon the regular chores would be done and I wouldn't know what to do with myself from 12-6pm. I'm like..that sounds like an easy peasy job..I like cleaning but then I didn't know...it is different in a jewish household. There are so many  restrictions. I did a good day organizing stuffs when she was training me...no sweat because I do all those things in my own house. I had a 4 bedroom ,2 1/2 bath, big kitchen , 2 car garage, a big backyard and big basement before and I'm the only one who cleaned it. 

But then, when it was time for lunch break ...she said we have to eat in the laundry room because we are not allowed to eat in their kitchen table. Im not allowed to eat their food, I'm not allowed to bring pork or shrimp to eat. I felt so bad because we were like "mouses" eating in that little room...she even put a paper towel on the ironing board so I could eat on it and made it my table.

If only I didn't have to go there for the sabbath dinner preparations. I thought I was just going there to see how she prepare the table then I could go. I needed to still do the regular cleaning of the 5 bedrooms , im like what?? then I truly know I didn't want to be there, she said sometimes she would have big sabbath dinners...and duh..she was the only one cleaning I bet...geez...I think if I started on monday by myself, maybe I would have done it...but then...my heart told me..this is not for me. So, I needed to tell her that day so she can get a replacement. Actually they have to pay me for that day she was training me. I don't even care...they can have it. I just don't want to be there anymore. Maybe Baby sitting is much better for me. I like taking care of old people too but not the bedridden. I only took that job because they paid a lot a day.

So, I have so many experiences already here in Paris. 

I want to experience the one where I live outside Paris and works only 4 hours a day. I am waiting for that, with the old person to take care of. I hope and wish that was a job for me...I wish it would be an old lady so that I can have fun while doing the job. or even here, taking care of an old lady would be good too..just not bedridden.

I had been here 5 months..

I wonder how long am I staying here..
