People break things. I wouldn't care, nor would I take money from her.

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
I thought that was very nice of her to replace the frame. I wouldn't deduct anything from her money bc she went out and replaced it on her own.

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
It's very nice of her to offer! If my cleaning lady broke something I would not deduct if from her pay. Accidents happen.

If it was really expensive, maybe I would accept a replacement.
It was an accident, it happens. I agree with the PP who say they would NOT deduct money from her pay.

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
Our old cleaning crew put some HUGE scratches on our dining room table from moving a vase back and forth on it. They offered to pay for the cost to fix it, but I just felt too bad...knowing it will be several hundred dollars to fix and they can't afford it.

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
I would never take money or accept a replacement...they work very hard and $20 is prob a lot different to her than to you...(I'm not saying your question was wrong, just giving my opinion!). I would be so happy at her honestly and sincerity, she sounds like a genuine person

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
As long as she does a good job otherwise I'd tell her to keep the money. Things happen.

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
I agree with the PP i wouldn't take money from her or make her replace the picture frame, She was honest enough to let you know that it accidently broke.. You dont come across 'Alot" of honest and straighforward cleaning ladies.

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
I wouldn't take it out of her pay or take a replacement. I would thank her for being honest and thoughtful about what she could do. Trust me, you will earn that $20 back. She will probably even work harder for you, extra things around the house that she wouldn't normally do, stay a little later... knowing you are a kind and caring "boss". You are relationship building here and trustworthy good help is like gold.

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
Situation resolved, but I'm rereading some posts and want to be clear about something. I wasn't the one who suggested taking any of her pay. She was the one who came up with that one, and I wouldn't have taken a dime away from her.

ITA. nothing like a worker that loves who they work for. and it sounds like you have a good thing, both her and you guys.

Re: WWYD if cleaning lady broke something..
Is anyone else amazed at the fact that her DH even noticed? I'd have to bash my DH over the head with the frame for him to realize it was broken/not there
