Taking it up with him may allow you to be a bit more candid / make your thoughts clear, then have him broach the subject with his wife. Depends on the individuals' personalities & the relationships within the group. | |

| Oct 27, 2017 at 8:39 | comment | added | Xander | @AnneDaunted I looked over the contract and technically he can't fire her without my consent. But if words reach the housekeeper's ears that she's not wanted, she will leave for sure. I just want her to be comfortable and wait her retirement in peace. | |
| Oct 27, 2017 at 8:34 | comment | added | Xander | @JarkoDubbeldam I've already tried to find the key for that door but I had no luck. Need to replace the whole lock probably but since this is a very old house, it's tricky. That door alone is probably 100 years old. But it's a solution if push comes to shove. | |
| Oct 27, 2017 at 8:29 | comment | added | user4788 | She's worked for your family for over 20 years, if your friend can't understand the importance of that to you and explain it to his wife, there is a problem there. The house keeper isn't causing trouble, but rather being intruded upon, so it is unreasonable for them to try to get rid of her for you speaking up. | |
| Oct 27, 2017 at 8:06 | comment | added | Anne Daunted GoFundMonica | So you and your wife own that house together with the other couple? Could the other couple fire the caretaker with your consent? There may be a legal issue involved, depending on where the house is (wanting one's privacy to be respected may not be a good reason to fire her and other means, like finding another reason, may be more troublesome/costlier) | |
