I'm finding this a little odd but would appreciate the thoughts of others.
I employed a new cleaner a couple of weeks ago and whilst she is good at what she does, she insists on calling me Madam. I've asked her to call me by my name but she just won't .. Apparently she prefers the distinction between her working life and home life.
My husband was around today and she called him Sir even though I introduced him by his name (I have a sneaky feeling he rather enjoyed that lol)
It just makes me feel really uncomfortable in my own home but not sure what I can do apart from telling her it's not working out.
She also gave me a typed list of jobs she won't do, including toilets, cooker, inside of kitchen units etc etc (she didn't mention this when I interviewed her)
Should I stick with her a bit longer or not?
