NP: this is not helpful. For example, I work full time, as does DH and we would rather spend time doing fun things with our kids than with them standing in the doorway of our bathroom talking while we're scrubbing a toilet. So we hire someone to clean for us. Nothing wrong with that. [/quote]

My point is: [b]cleaners stealing something is a cost of doing business for someone who hires domestic help and doesn’t pay them well enough.[/b] You seem uniquely bothered by it, like it may be more stressful than average for you, and like this thing that is supposed to be saving you time/focus may not actually be giving you those things because of it.

So you might consider whether having a cleaner is actually a net good in the way that you thought it would be.[/quote]

I think a lot of people justify their actions with this line of thinking. But that’s pretty messed up, don’t you think?

If the cleaning lady is underpaid, the correct action is to either quit or demand a raise, not to steal someone’s stuff!  [/quote]

I don’t think it’s justified or correct, and I wouldn’t do it. But it doesn’t matter what I think; it matters that OP has been unsuccessful finding someone who does not think this way and it REALLY bothers her.

She has total control over whether she brings a person she doesn’t know well into her home and around all her stuff. She could stop. That’s all.[/quote]
