“The woman works for four hours. 08-12 hrs. Sometimes she even leaves at nine if there’s no laundry,” @king_bangy wrote.

Her post left several social media users baffled as they expressed that the woman was being unreasonable for complaining about two eggs and cheese slices, especially considering they were eaten by someone she has employed.

Check out what Mzansi had to say on the matter:

@LungaMrhetjha responded:

“Why do you have a "maid" if you're complaining about two eggs? You're poor like the rest of us. Stop pretending.”

@JoyBlackZA joked:

“Shocking man. She should be eating a well-balanced meal ask her to add tomatoes, bacon and rye bread.”

@Bonisile_RMS said:

“I know she is underpaid. No one who is paying their helper well is stressed about 2 eggs. Do you even do minimum wage?”

“Your housekeeper’s feeding and feeding allowance should be negotiated into a contract. Your housekeeper should be professional enough to respect boundaries. You should maintain a professional relationship with your housekeeper.”

Nachi_Mushy commented:

“I don’t think it’s too much. Our maid is allowed to eat anything she wants as long as it does not belong to someone in particular.”

@marvin_H96 responded:

“So you decide to come to Twitter with such information? Are you crying about 2 eggs? How many was she supposed to eat? If you can’t afford it tell her not to come to work and eat the food. Two eggs that’s R4 only. Don’t hire helpers if you can’t afford them.”

They go by many names - domestics, maids, nannies, helpers - but they're all the same. Some are treated like they are gold while others as if the employer is doing them a service and not the other way around.

Marcia du Pont took to Facebook with a poem by Herman H Le Roux about domestic workers that is sure to leave you feeling all kinds of emotions. The poem explains the lives of domestics from both the good and bad views. While some are treated well, they still face many struggles.
