Woman cries out as house help steals from her

However, she decided to let her go after realizing that the house help did not know how to clean.

According to the woman, after the maid left, she continued saving money in her savings box, only to later discover that it had been broken into and some of her savings were missing.

In a post shared on TikTok via her handle, @anotherdaytogoharder, she revealed her disappointment over the incident. She captioned the video:

"You employed a maid from hell."

The video showed her looking visibly upset and angry, though she still kept her composure.

She explained that the theft must have happened before the maid was sacked and that she only discovered it when she wanted to add to her savings.

In her words:

"THIS PEOPLE ARE GETTING BOLD!!!!*
*I don’t even know how to feel!!!!!! To think someone I’ve been feeding and even giving money aside her salary can do this!!!!! She doesn’t know how to clean, I told her I’m letting her go. She went home, two days later I go to put money into this and I find this ‘kolo’ open. Yo!!!! She had the audacity to say she didn’t take it. I can’t even shout, I’m just pissed!!!!!!"
