Kaya mo bang walang katulong/driver (househelp)

[trustingsoul]

driver ok lang since i d0nt have a car..l0l kidding aside , ok lang din walang maid since sanay na ko sa gawaing bahay, kaya lang gusto ko may kasakasama m0ther ko pag nasa w0rk kami magkakapatid, and para relax na lang din pag nasa bahay.

cannot live without a maid.

but when we moved to a condo, 1 nalang maid, instead of 2.  more efficient din kung minimized ang number of helpers. less kwentuhan, less awayan among them   

[ebosh]

ok lang saken walang driver kaya nga nka bangga ako kahapon eh! lol
maid kaya ko din ng wala.. ang problema ko lang eh yung laundry.. kapag pinalaba mo kase sa laundry shop eh hindi naman talaga nila natatanggal yung mga stains parang binabad lang sa frabric conditioner. Sa food naman I rarely eat at home so keri lang hehe..

i've been living without a yaya since 2nd year high school (i'm turning 24 na). okay naman. as for the house help, almost 10 years na ata kaming walang katulong. Wala namang kids sa bahay namin and 4 lang naman kaming girls so wala namang kalat. If we hire naman a maid, wala ring gagawin. What we have now though is a labandera. She washes and presses our clothes (and feeds my doggies too!). We don't have the luxury of time para maglaba at magplantsa pa e. =)

Btw, we had a driver eons ago. I don't need one now kase all of us know how to drive naman and I really don't like the idea of having someone else drive your car. Hehe. =) IMO only.

[jobelle1984]

wala kaming house maid almost 4 months na kase pina alis ko nananakit kase sa mga anak ko...i'm studying and had 2 kids age  is 6 and 3 y/o...

now nakakaya ko naman basta tinutulungan ako ni hubby lalo na s luto and wash our clothes.i have my brother lang na tumutulong pag papasok na ko sa school..sarap nga ng feeling pag walang house maid eh...

[~TiCkLeS~]

it's our 1st day without household help....i was able to manage naman this first day...i hope kayanin namin until the time na makahanap ako ng kapalit nung umalis naming maid. nakakataranta lang kasi my kids needs to leave for school at 10:30am while i need to leave for work at 11am, parepareho pa naman kaming mabagal kumilos at mga late na magising. mahirap pa pakainin mga bata sa morning dahil wala pang gana, buti na lang my hubby is on the night shift kaya may kasama naman kids ko when they get home from school, paguwi ko from work yung hubby ko naman ang papasok....mahirap din ang walang helper lalo na pag sanay na kayo na there is always someone assisting you in everything that you need....but of course kakayanin naman talaga kung gusto, wala naman choice kung wala ka talagang helper eh you have to do things on your own super hate ko lang talaga maglaba at magplantsa...as in!!!

[shek_3699]

Hindi kaya ng walang maid. Pero kung walang choice, as in walang maid kagaya ngayon...kaya naman. kakayanin ko nalang kaysa naman meron ka nga maid pero sakit sa ulo naman.

[idontthinkso]

yup! wala kaming katulong ngayon at wala ding driver. pero honestly syempre mas comfortable kung meron. pero di din naman ako nasanay na may katulong/driver dahil wala kaming matinong makuha.

[simple_elegance]

palagay ko naman i can manage without a maid basta stay at home mom ako. parang mas gusto ko pa nga na walang maid kasi minsan may mga maid na imbes sila makisama sayo, ikaw pa makikisama sa kanila. and anyway, i stay for months at a time in the US kaya sanay naman ako kung walang maid. mas ok and mas thorough pa nga ko maglinis at mag ayos sa bahay kesa sa maid. siguro labandera at plantsadora lang ok na or bibilhan ako ni hubby ng washer and dryer. hehe.

[sistah!]

we have not had a maid in years. manageable naman. but we cannot live without our labandera and plantasora who comes once a week. i think that's the only heavy housework that we have. mostly, okay naman kami.

[ratacutie]

parang hindi ko kaya  hindi ko kasi kaya yung toddler ko hehe...and I'm not at all domesticated.  Ok lang walang driver..pero I dont think kaya ko ang without a helper and yaya.  Kung wala kami sigurong anak kaya ko basta may washing machine, dryer and dishwasher hehe

[summersong]

I'm actually more comfortable without maids or drivers. I've done without them for years and years. Sinanay kami ni nanay sa lahat ng gawaing bahay. Mabigat din kasi ang kamay ng karamihan ng hired help, minsan makati pa. Mawawalan ka pa ng privacy lalo na't mahilig tumambay si Inday sa tapat kabilang bahay.

Having lived in a few places for a long time, I'm more used to doing house stuff myself, how I want it. I just make sure that we live in a place that's not soo big it necessitates hiring househelp. Lahat ng nakatira sa bahay ko may kanya-kanyang gawain, bata o matanda, maliban lang sa mga may sakit. I actually find most pinoys too dependent on househelp kahit ang liit-liit ng tinitirhan nila, kahit walang alagain; it's just plain laziness.

[julie_llevares]

I grew up w/o maid in the house. My mom was a full time house wife, so she take care all of us.. But, now that I am married, I never tried of having one. I still lived with my parents me and my son, my hubby left us in our house when he go to Dubai.. He was afraid [textspeak!] if me and jeshua was left in apsrtment with maid... wala syang tiwala and besides Im working... maybe, when we separate I think i will have one...hindi ko kaya mag-isa sa son ko super likot sya... hehe.. and nxt year he will go to school na... yehey!!! Im aso excited

[lyrahs]

kaya naman. Matagal kaming walang katulong sa bahay kaya marunong ako ng gawaing bahay. Now that I live alone, napakinabangan ko ng husto yun. Ang gusto ko ngayon magkaron ulit ng katulong sila mama sa bahay para naman di na sya mahirapan mag-laba, sympre matanda na din sya kaya kelangan na ng katulong.

[camissha29]

kaya naman kung wala akong work.

[mkasj_rn]

Dati akala ko worst! mahirap! pero as time goes by and nakita ko kung pano ma badtrip mom ko sa mga house helpers it made me realize aanhin mo ang katulong kung literally eh hindi naman nakaka tulong talaga? how ironic, madami kasi sa mga katulong sa umpisa lang OK. As in pakitang gilas, super sipag, super baet etc. Pero asahan mo ilang weeks lang maangas na. Sila na masusunod and literal makapal na ang mga mukha. I don't mean to say ALL pero mapapansin niyo yun. Seasonal kami mag karon ng katulong pero pag nawawala or umaalis sila hindi na ko natatakot, haha what's new?. Kaya na namin mga house hold chores. now i'm living independently and every weekend na lang umuuwi sa house ng parents ko ok naman. Nakaya ko ng mag isa, minsan lang nakakapagod din kasi wala na ko enough time to clean kasi pagod na from work.

[kurdapya]

i grew up being served din.. ang sabi nila.. pano ka pag nag asawa ka.. then palagi ko sinasabi 'eh di kukuha ako ng katulong'.. ngayon i have 1 baby and a toddler.. and husband is away so ako lahat.. at hindi uso ang katulong dito sa abroad so ako lahat... ang hiraaaaap...

[tiggerlily]

kaya sana kung wala akong work.. hayz... nagpaalam na ngayon ngayon lang maid namin. ang stress!!!

[ms.messed_up*]

Kaya naman kung walang maid and driver, kaso ang hirap!
Driver talaga kelangan, i dont drive kasi.
Maid-- sobrang comfortable pag meron, tipong gigising ka na lang to eat kasi prepared na lahat for you. just the thought na wala kameng maid, ang stressful na.. demanding kasi sibs ko.
sana makahanap na kame ng long term maid, kasi it always ends up na nag aasawa sila,or nabubuntis.

[jamberryknots]

i think i can survive without any househelp for about two weeks then after that super cranky na ko natry ko kasi super challenging talaga kapag walang helper
