Don’t you dare threaten my mother that way! :mad:
Little bundles of dolls that look like Twiggy?
Well, you know… good help is* sooo* hard to find, dear.
It would help if you could at least describe what she’s doing.
And what do you mean by “spells hidden around the place”? Little items? If so, take pictures of those and post them. No privacy issues.
Finally, how do you know that these are curses, and not protection items? Maybe she does this as an added benefit for all her clients.
She needs to clean better - spells hidden around the house indeed! Any good housecleaner gets into the corners and under stuff.
Just what I was thinking. Is it possible that she’s doing the equivalent of nailing up crucifixes (and hanging garlic)? Still won’t do anything, but a completely different motive.
And yes, talk to her… or burn her as a witch… one of the two. 
Yeah. First, I have a hard time believing someone would really go to an online messageboard and say, “There’s someone I let into my house on a regular basis who’s actively trying to hurt me. What should I do?” I mean, really. Second, if it was real, the OP would have at least listed what was found, so we’d know they were curses and not protections.
Pull the other one, it’s got bells on.
So far my cleaning service has broken my dishwasher, one of the glass panels in my coffee table, my kitchen trash can (this was a great loss, as it was a narrow model with a step-on lid from Linens & Things, and the only replacement I could find was Real Human and cost $130, although it’s undeniably better, but not $120 better), and knocked over a 3D puzzle my kid was working on for months.
Not to mention missing a couple of corners and a couple of complete dusting failures. (I usually get the same person, but they are all short and can’t see the top of the refrigerator. Neither can I. My husband can, though.) I would say the cleaning is sometimes really good, and sometimes a little deficient, but in any case, it’s better than if I had done it.
I would say, if she’s doing an excellent job of cleaning, keep her. If I could find someone who was magnificent at the cleaning and didn’t break things, I wouldn’t care if she was trying to curse me using folklore, because that stuff doesn’t work unless you believe in it, and I don’t.
If you’re serious about what’s happening, then of course you have to fire her. Who knows what she’ll pull in the effort to make the curse come true?
Not jerking around? Then ELABORATE already!
Just wear a tin-foil suit.
I vote Whoosh until/unless more information comes along. In a long post.
Y’all reckon he hasn’t responded because he’s been eaten by zombies or something?
Yeah, I’m going to call BS on the OP.
You still haven’t given any real information other than “folk magic.” If she’s using your hair, it’s definitely magic involving you, but how do you know her intent? Just a quick look at a single source says that hair can be used to bring on baldness, death, insanity, or headaches; it can keep you from visiting her house. On the other hand, it can prevent or cure baldness, it can make you fall in love with her; it can keep you faithful to your wife; it can make you pliable and easy to handle.
Honestly, in an employee-boss relationship, she’s at least as likely to be trying to win your love or keep you easy to handle as she is to harm you. Tell us what she’s doing, and it will be easier to advise.
Right I will have a word with her this evening (it’s 7:51am here now) and post what happens.
Initially it was my belief that these were a kind of protection spell. The reason I know they are not is I showed a friend of mine who is a linguist who reacted with initial amusement and then “WTF” as she told me what they actually said. To the nearest approximation they are exorcism spells to exorcise satan from possessing me.
The stuff on video is so weird I’m not sure if I should describe it. If someone can tell me how to blur video then I could maybe put it on youtube.
I say you should give her a raise. Employees that hate you are too hard to find these days, and you don’t want to lose her to one of the neighbors.
hh
Well…? Was Satan possessing you? (That would explain why you were so angry, anyway.) If so, then exorcising the dark one merits an extra big tip.
You should see if she floats.
Can’t beleive I am the first to suggest this stunning realm of science.
Considering you stated you don’t believe in curses, it would seem you are open to unchecked spiritual attacks and blinded to them.
IMHO
- She is doing something
- She may be trying to protect/deliver you - this may work or make matters worse, she may have been sent by God for that reason.
- Since it is effecting you enough to post and have it taped, I’d say there is a part of you that does believe it’s real.
- My suggestion is to come to your heavenly father in prayer and let Him know that this is out of your league to handle and ask Him to take care of it.
Lost my tepid interest with this particular bullshit.
If you were truly so clueless that you were unable to comprehend our interest in the barest of facts, you would be unable to find your way around the keyboard.
I’m not following your logic, here. Why would weirdness prevent you from describing it? I just don’t understand the point of withholding this information. “Weird” is relative, anyway. Gamblers blow on and / or kiss their dice, and athletes refuse to wash socks and underwear for the duration of a winning streak: that’s pretty weird. As part of their magical practices, humans sacrifice animals, spit on things, pray to spirits, use strange creaky voices, make various gestures, and otherwise do all sorts of things which are not a part of everyday life. With all due respect I sincerely doubt that her spells are any weirder than your run-of-the-mill Santería stuff, which is pretty common around here.
