Over reacting? No. However, I have to ask, do they really have "high end" maid services in Georgia??? Really? It's not like Georgia is the billionaire capitol of the US. I'm guessing that Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and Jeff Bezos aren't you're neighbors? But, yes, I'd get rid of them. That's extremely unprofessional maid service behavior. Sounds like they were in the process of stealing, not cleaning. If this was a normal, middle class maid service then I'd give the service another chance to terminate these people and provide trustworthy maids. A high end service would have completed much more expensive and thorough back ground investigations than a regular service that the rest of society can afford.

Real "high end"maid service's business reputation is their life blood and they don't want to lose their "high end" clientele. Rich people tend to talk to each other and if they started complaining about a "high end" service that was stealing form a single one of them, the business would start losing clients like they had the plague. The one's where the owner is pocketing the "difference" aren't high end to begin with. There's no way they'd stay in business very long, because the list of "high end" clients, unlike middle class customers, is a very short list.

So my wife and I hired a high end maid service. Very costly, supposedly very professional.

They showed up today (the first day) and started cleaning in the master bath. As we were told they would do. My wife wanted them to wear little booties on their shoes in the house since our daughter plays on the floor. About 10 minutes after they got here, my wife went up to take them the booties.

When she got up there, they were in the master bath with the door shut and LOCKED. She said she had to wait at least 1 minute for them to open the door. She said that one of them acted like she was using the bathroom and even asked the other for toilet paper. The only thing is, there WAS toilet paper in the room with the toilet - and the room with the toilet has its own door independent of the master bath area. Why would she be asking for TP, why would the main door be shut and locked?

When they finally opened the door my wife saw one of her bottles of medicine on the counter. A bottle of Concerta that was inside a drawer 10 minutes ago. I think they were rummaging through our drawers looking for meds to steal and forgot to put that one away while they were scrambling. They aren't supposed to clean in the drawers, period. Why the fuck was the medicine on the counter?

I've already called the maid service, I want them out. Just wondering if I'm overreacting or not.

They would be gone immediately...you know exactly what they were doing.

My house cleaners are all immigrants...mostly Russian and Ukrainian, occasional some Spanish speaking folks, not sure where they are from...they know they have a good gig and aren't about to screw it up by being sneaky. They work their asses off and do a great job.....no drama ever. One time one of them accidentally broke something in one of the bathrooms...some small porcelain toothbrush holder...she was absolutely horrified and on the verge of tears. The woman who runs the service wanted to reimburse me, asked if we wanted that cleaner to never come back....you have have thought they set the place on fire or something. I told them to forget it...but the woman was still freaked out. I think they know they are one screw-up away from being out of a job, and so they go way out of their way to provide great service. It pays to have people who NEED the job

Well "area" and zipcode can be 2 different things.

There are definitely neighborhoods where $245k a year would be the poor people on the block.   Same zip code probably has an average income of $120k a year, but those people are packed in apartments, while the people on Club Dr in Buckhead laugh at them from their 10k sq ft houses.

I'd drop kick them out of my house so fast Bautista would be proud.  Stealing meds is a crime, and so is selling them, which is probably what they planned to do.  I don't need a cop showing up at my door because my prescription was on the street getting some kid high.  They'd be gone and I'd be on the phone with their employer pronto.

Hey man, if you're cool with them tracking shit in from other people's homes then fine.

We aren't. Either take your shoes off or wear some little things slipped over your shoes. Simple. No one has ever had a problem with it, and I bet the people that would have a problem with it are the people that will never cross our threshold anyway.
