How hard can it be to find someone to take care of my grandma? The first caregiver that showed up at our door only weighed 78 pounds. My grandma is 108. The second one we interviewed cost too much. The third one ended up telling me she couldn't come to work anymore because she had just found out she was pregnant. The fourth one came with her boyfriend to the interview, had too many requests (days off, salary requirements, etc.) and when asked why she had quit her secretary job the week earlier, responded, "it was too boring." Oh, I'm sure taking care of an 80 year old will be full of excitement and adventure. The last one I thought was going to be a good fit. After all, she told me she could do everything. Walang problema! I have years of experience... But within 5 minutes of arriving for the first day of work, she told me she didn't have enough to pay rent this month and asked if I could give her an advancement so that her daughter and grand-daughter (whom she also brought along with her) would have a roof over their heads. I have enough troubles of my own-- does it say somewhere on my forehead that I need more?!?! Back out the door she went. And so it is... life in the Philippines. We haven't had phone service for 4 days now. Two technicians came by yesterday, but not only did it still not work, the internet went down as well. But today, we gave them money while they were fidgiting with the wires. And all of a sudden, everything works perfectly! Haha...
