So, uh, I caught my maid watching porn on my YouTube account

This story plays out the same every time. Straight to alt-right.
Dude she lives there.. it's not like she's fucking some dude in your bed.
Well, maybe she is. Go sniff the sheets.

Many live-in maids are. Do some research on the matter. Who really knows about OP.
OP for what it's worth I'm totally on your side of feeling like my personal space and privacy has been violated.
That being said (and as I saw you decided to do) I would not fire her, especially since she's pregnant. Definitely have a serious talk with her about what's ok and what's not. I imagine she has her own room in your house? She's free to watch porn there or whatever. Ensure her own privacy and free will.

It's a very common thing in Hong Kong and no, you do not have to be rich to hire one.
Again the responses in here are absolutely fucking wild. What the heck y'all?
Your decision OP, it's respectable given the situation. Good luck with the chat!

If you don't fire her, maybe consider just bringing up the fact that you saw she's been using your laptop without mentioning the porn and other weird shit. It can get the same point across without bringing up stuff that may make the conversation more awkward and difficult. Get her a Chromebook and put a password on your computers. Maybe put up a camera or four. :)

Yeah I'm not gonna scream at her or anything, I'm just going to let her know I know what she's been doing, without going into details as not to embarass her too much, and tell her it immediately stops. That's it.
Apparently she can't do it in her own room since she doesn't get her own personal computer and can't afford one. I'm not entirely sure if that's correct though.
Just the first post. I believe OP has servants that reply for him.
Hong Kong is particularly awful, because they don't grant right of abode despite maids living there for decades.
Live-in Maids in Latin America might as well be, considering what they get paid.
OP won't even give her a device to browse the web.
Empathy for who? The maid or OP? I'm on the maid's side.
OP
OP
She makes minimum wage and gets food and board, and hell apparently even porno. She's doing OK, nothing spectacular of course but it is what it is.
Give her a personal device to browse the internet on her own. She's not a pet.
Rather off beat question here, but on Youtube, Watch History doesn't supply when the video was watched, and search history will only give you how many days ago the video was watched after 24 hours have lapsed, so how can "Mr. Fantastic" claim that the videos were watched at a time when only the maid could have done so?
OP would deduct her wages for WIFI use and put a parental block on it anyway.
OP
OP
She has her damn smartphone, she's using my TV for obvious reasons.
Why would he need to do that? Why? She works and gets paid, she can get it herself.
OP
OP
Because the ones from today are post me watching DMC stuff last night before going to bed. All in all she watched 33 videos today while I was at work.
This ain't fucking rocket science.
Because she lives there and is financially dependent on them. "Minimum wage" places emphasis on "minimum."
She's poor and vulnerable. This is a chance to use privilege to better other people's lives.
I am not getting her a tablet or laptop pls stop
OP
OP
She already has a smartphone with internet access, I'm not getting her a laptop or tablet jesus fucking christ
contrary to believe, I AM NOT RICH lmao
contrary to believe, I AM NOT RICH lmao
Fucking christ. "I give her next to no money but she can eat and live here I guess, unless she watched porn, in which case I have to question if I should fire her and essentially leave her homeless while pregnant. It is what it is."
OP
OP
It'd be nice if you stepped down from your high horse and bothered to read my update on her future employment status. I guess it's easier being a sanctimonious asshole though?
she gets paid minimum wage in a country where income disparity is so extreme that live in maids are a common phenomenon, and where apparently employees have so little power they could potentially get fired overnight for something this insignificant and stupid.
i really doubt she can get it herself, because i really doubt she'd be able to afford it
Oh yeah dude you're a regular knight in shining armor for not kicking a pregnant woman out onto the street for using your fucking TV.
OP
OP
I mean if i watched porn on my company laptop I would definitely get fired, so that's a weird sentiment.
And like I said, she has a smartphone already.
Bro I'm with you, this fucking thread is wild, lol.
She chose to work for OP, agree to the terms of employment, and now its on OP for arranging to get a computer even she has a smartphone?
Call me crazy but you guys are fucking dense if you shit on the OP still like he's the villain, especially since he reiterated multiple times she is not getting fired.
OP
OP
No I thought I was just a troubled dude with doubts in his head looking for advice on a supposedly progressive forum, but apparently you're either perfect and never have any doubts or you're a fucking asshole who deserves to rot in hell.
Cool stuff.
Imagine being this snarky because a pregnant live in maid won't be homeless tomorrow.
You have a wage slave dude. Sorry if I'm not sympathetic to your extreme decision of whether or not you should fire her for using your TV.
