Dont be jealous now.
Exactly that, but she should be resting, not getting SA'd by the owner....
Monetary gift/present for house cleaner at Christmas?

I find chocolate and sweets a safe bet. Not everyone drinks but surely everyone enjoys a tasty treat!

You definitely don't need to worry about that. Anyway, what a strange suggestion.

Most family sized houses take half a day to clean tbf, we have a cleaner once every 2 weeks and she does it in around 3.5-4 hours. We've always considered swapping to once a week for 2 hours but we tend to keep mostly on top of it that it doesn't need a weekly thorough clean.
In response to OP, we've always done a nice tub/box of chocolates (celebrations etc.) and a card and that's gone down well.
That's a big house.
How much does she clean? Like dusting and stuff too?

Pressing X to doubt, but even so, nowhere near a day's work. Very few people will be spending over £100 a month on a cleaner, you're in a tiny minority.
A few friends and people at work hire cleaners, but not one of them hires one for half a day.

Yeah I am the only one in here with a strange suggestion.
Pick on me for suggesting a form of relaxation I would like, against someone being a glorified perv.
Yeah I'm the problem here.....
Guess it depends how thorough.
Ours is 1.5 hours 2 times a month.
Mopping, vacuum, work tops, cleaning bath, sink, toilets, vacuum sofas etc.
Usually doesn't do my home office as I'm working in there.
Our house is small though.

Firstly, I didn't say you were the only one. Secondly, it's quite clear that these people are joking, whereas your suggestion seems to be a serious one.
Oh sorry internet police, I'll ensure to drop sarcasm hints on my posts next time for you, sorry if my humour is not disgusting enough for you to understand its humour immediately.
Maybe others are not humour, you dont know that for sure.
Yes, but only if he dresses up as Mrs Doubtfire (which I think he’ll enjoy).

I think that's very nice. We used to give our cleaner's children a little gift like a book or something (not sure, my wife sorted it!)
Now you see, I am sure a cleaner that cant take a day off, would be happy to come to work to not work and let their client have a laugh with them?
Oh right no, according to the internet police, my suggestions is beyond humour and is disgusting....
Caporegime
You made it quite clear that you weren't being sarcastic.
It's also ironic of you to suggest that I didn't get it, when you took Scuzi's post as a serious suggestion. Yes, of course it's not humour, they really do give their cleaners lingerie
Where did anyone claim your suggestion was disgusting? You're spiralling here.

I'm with you here, really not sure why he's spiralling
You'll get over it, its GD lad, can say what we want.
Its not disgusting, I am just exaggerating and taking the mick out of your view point.
So I can't be sarcastic if I choose to reply again to back it up?
No I did not, I was asking why you would come down on my suggestion when you did not know if serious or in jest.
But you can take an actual disgusting view point and just pass it off as humour when it might not actually be.

jesus wept, only in GD could someone post an innocent question about doing something nice and it turn in to a bickering match between the children.
