A maid, or housemaid or maidservant, is a female person employed in domestic service. Although now usually found only in the most wealthy of households, in the Victorian era domestic service was the second largest category of employment in England and Wales, after agricultural work.
Once part of an elaborate hierarchy in great houses, today a single maid may be the only domestic worker that upper and even middle-income households can afford, as was historically the case for many households. In the contemporary Western world, comparatively few households can afford live-in domestic help, usually compromising on periodic cleaners. In less developed nations, very large differences in the income of urban and rural households and between different socio-economic classes, fewer educated women and limited opportunities for working women ensures a labour source for domestic work.
Maids perform typical domestic chores such as cooking, ironing, washing, cleaning the house, grocery shopping, walking the family dog, and taking care of children. In many places in some poor countries, maids often take on the role of a nurse in taking care of the elderly and people with disabilities. Many maids are required by their employers to wear a uniform.
Abuse is the improper usage or treatment of an entity, often to unfairly or improperly gain benefit. Abuse can come in many forms, such as: physical or verbal maltreatment, injury, assault, violation, rape, unjust practices; crimes, or other types of aggression.
Abuse of authority, in the form of political corruption, is the use of legislated or otherwise authorised powers by government officials for illegitimate private gain. Misuse of government power for other purposes, such as repression of political opponents and general police brutality, is not considered political corruption. Neither are illegal acts by private persons or corporations not directly involved with the government. An illegal act by an officeholder constitutes political corruption only if the act is directly related to their official duties.
Abuse of authority is separated from abuse of power in that the act is originally condoned, but is extended beyond that initially conceived and is in not all cases

Malaysians have become heavily reliant on foreign maids in the absence of a good child daycare system. But their prime source of foreign domestic help, Indonesia, has been reluctant to send its women to work in Malaysian homes after a string of abuse cases, some of which resulted in death. Even now after a two year moratorium has been lifted, only a trickle of Indonesians are coming in to work as live-in domestic helpers.

Hundreds of Ugandan domestic workers continue to flock towards the Middle East looking for work. Several have been abused yet a lot of the abuse goes unpunished by the authorities. But why does the abuse happen and is there anything that can be done about it? How about the victims' families? How are they coping and will they stop their children from going abroad? Kassim Kayira explores part of this problem.
There are more than 200,000 foreign domestic workers in Singapore. Under the law, they have to be at least 23 years old. But one NGO says it is seeing more and more minors at its shelter for abused maids. Most of these girls come from Myanmar, where investigations reveal a web of deceit and corruption in the recruitment process, and immigration officials are regularly bribed to doctor birthdates on travel documents. Because of their youth, the girls are often easy targets for abusive employers and sexual predators. 101 East investigates.

Tears Of a Maid is a riveting movie that is impeccably scripted, beautifully directed and filled with fine performances which presents us a mirror of the world in which we have found ourselves. The truth is the world is full of many promises, promises of riches, promises of infinite love, promises of good friendship, promises of a happy marriage but incidentally the problem with promises is that once you've made one, it's bound to be broken by you or by fate. It's like an unspoken cosmic rule.

Why is the sole purpose in life to serve as the shit that we fill our coffins with?
It's kind of like being at the bottom of the ninth and still we don't know how to play the game.
Take a look around, your life is in front of your eyes.
It's just like recognizing the fact that life moves way too fast as you're standing at the pump
filling up on gas and you think to yourself, "There's no way I'm going back."
The romantic ride into the sunset.
It's just like diving in headfirst without dipping your toe.
I had to get away for a while and I'm sorry you can't come but that would defeat the purpose.
