A housekeeper is being ripped off, and it's my mom! In this video, Angela tackles a question about a housekeeper's pay and whether she's being taken advantage of. After reading a letter from a concerned daughter, Angela gives her professional opinion on the matter. She considers that the mother has been with the same family for 40 years, the tasks she performs, and how much she is paid. Angela also questions whether the mother is an employee or an independent contractor and the flexibility she has in raising her prices or quitting the job. Join Angela as she delves into this interesting topic and provides some valuable insights. Today's #AskaHouseCleaner sponsor is #SavvyCleaner training and certification for house cleaners and maids.
