Woman films herself berating maid for not filling in logbook, Latest Singapore News

Foreign maids in Singapore come from varying backgrounds, there are those who have lived only in their village while there are others who have tertiary education.

Miscommunication arises not only due to differing educational backgrounds but also language barriers as many of the maids who come to Singapore to work are not fluent in English.

An employer has recently filmed herself berating her maid for apparently not filling in her chore logbook. She had put in a place a system where the maid had to log her chores and the time taken to complete each chore.

In a Sept 16 video shared by Regent Maid Agency on Facebook, the woman is seen asking a maid a question.

However, the woman continues to stand in silence.

The employer tells the maid she is filming because she has not been answering her question. "I am not scolding you now," says the employer.

When the maid still keeps mum after almost a minute, the employer appears to lose her cool. She slams her hand on the table and shouts: "Hello!"

According to the agency, the employer has been having issues with the maid's language proficiency and work performance.

"Despite our efforts to align expectations and offer support, these issues have continued," it explained.

The employer, who claims to be a social media influencer, told the agency she planned to bring to light her situation for it to serve as a warning to other potential employers.

The agency shared that the maid "experienced significant stress due to the work environment, including instances of verbal abuse". She even considered repatriation due to the challenging conditions.

"While employers have the right to express their concerns, it is also important to recognise the challenges faced by agencies and helpers," Regent Maid Agency wrote in its Facebook post.

"We acknowledge the challenges faced by helpers, including verbal and mental stress. We continue to address these issues within existing guidelines and will provide feedback to the relevant authorities."

A few things which coolie gene Sinkies should be banned from doing:
Hire maids

Maid employers in SG should have to undergo a strict course, pass it and then be licensed and approved to be able to employ maids….and subject to yearly reviews and re applications

Divorce Ponzi: 5 women who became billionaires after divorcing their husbands​

The divorce of Bill and Melinda Gates is set to mint another woman billionaire. Yesterday, Nairametrics reported on the first set of transactions made by Bill Gates to his ex-wife, Melinda.
She was transferred securities worth over $1 billion, already making her a billionaire. With more transfers set to come, we want to look at 5 other women who became billionaires after divorcing their husbands.

5 . Sue Ann Arnall ($1 billion  ​

Sue Ann Arnall was the wife of oil baron and CEO of Continental Resources, Mr Harold Hamm. The 26-year-old marriage ended in 2015 with a handwritten check of a whopping $974 million to Sue Ann, which she initially rejected on the basis that it was too small. After a series of back and forth in court, however, she finally accepted the cheque.
Before the cheque, Harold Hamm had initially paid her over $20 million, driving the total settlement figure over a billion dollars.
Harold Hamm is currently the 247th richest man in the world with a net worth of $8.6 billion.

Bill Gross is currently worth $1.5 billion according to Forbes. He founded PIMCO in 1971 and it became one of the most successful investment management firms in America.

2. Melinda Gates ($1.8 billion and counting) ​

Melinda Gates is the latest billionaire divorcee on the block and she is already worth $1.8 billion after the first transfer of wealth. Her ex-husband, Bill Gates is the 4th richest man in the world. She will be worth over $60 billion if Bill Gates’ fortune is split evenly with her, although that is very unlikely.

1. Mackenzie Scott ($57.7 billion) ​

The ex-wife of the richest man in the world tops the list with a staggering $57.7 billion net worth. She met her ex-husband, Jeff Bezos when they both worked at a hedge fund in New York and she helped set up Amazon.
After her divorce from Bezos in 2019, she received 4% of Amazon shares which was valued at $35 billion then. Amazon stocks have witnessed a near 75% increase since then. She is currently worth $57.7 billion according to Forbes
