    I wouldn’t describe it as a flea market, necessarily. Flea markets are places where people sell used stuff, usually for cheap.

    While it may seem degrading, I actually think it’s a good idea because maid agencies are disgusting to walk through (as a woman) and flipping through the “catalogues” is a very time-consuming process.

    Kuwait isn’t the only country to have online maid agencies. Singapore has quite a few.

    Why don’t you think about it as monster.com for hired help?

  • DA said:

    Personally I have nothing against anyone in general, but the concept of hired help is alien to me. I mean I have seen this in West and East but somehow I can never see anyone working for me for day to day activities. I do agree that sick and elderly need the help, but servants and domestic help are still beyond me.

    I see it disgusting .. totally awkward and inappropriate ..

    It’s not something for humans .. I hear of interviews .. CVs .. anything but not that way which looks like you’re buying no more than a TV or a cell phone ..
