Opportunity of a Lifetime

Employment Agreement

 

THIS AGREEMENT made as of the ______day of__________________, 2017, between [Master’s name], and having its principal place of business at his residence in [Master’s location] (the "Master"); and [Maid’s name], of [Maid’s location] (henceforth referred to as the "Maid").

WHEREAS Master desires to obtain the benefit of the services of the Maid, and the Maid desires to render such services on the terms and conditions set forth.

IN CONSIDERATION of the promises and other good and valuable consideration (the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged) the parties agree as follows:

1. Terms of Employment

The Maid agrees that she will at all times faithfully, industriously, and to the best of her skill, ability, experience and talents, perform all the duties required of her position. In carrying out these duties and responsibilities, the Maid shall comply with all Master’s policies, procedures, rules and regulations, both written and *oral*, as are announced by the Master from time to time. It is also understood and agreed to by the Maid that her assignment, duties and responsibilities and reporting arrangements may be changed by the Master in his sole discretion without causing termination of this agreement.

2. Duties

The Maid is required to perform the following duties and undertake the following responsibilities in a professional manner.

(a) All dishes must be washed after any meals are eaten in the house. All rooms must be dusted twice weekly, on Mondays and Thursdays. Kitchen floor must be mopped every Wednesday. Laundry must be washed and hung to air dry every weekend. Master’s laundry will be washed on Saturdays and Maid’s laundry will be washed on Sundays. A neat and tidy appearance of the house must be maintained in general, any out of place items must be returned to their proper location as soon as possible.

(b) The Maid must maintain a certain image, specifically the Master prefers a Maid who is quite full-figured, so the Maid will be expected to gain significant amounts of weight to satisfy this requirement. During the early stages of employment, prosthetics will be provided but it is expected that the Maid will make every effort to gain enough weight to no longer need these as soon as is possible. In addition, Master will require periodic changes to hair style and color as well as other cosmetic adjustments.

(c) Food must not be wasted. As space is limited in the refrigerator, all staff meals must be eaten completely by the Maid, and any leftovers from the Master’s meals must be eaten by the Maid as well. Strict adherence to this rule will help with the weight gain requirements present in item (b).

(d) Master will have various other requests for the Maid as needed or desired, these must all be attended to without delay, and are just as important as the duties specifically listed here.

3. Compensation

The Maid will be compensated by room and board, staff meals, and the provision of both work and leisure uniforms, as well as any prosthetics or other aesthetic changes demanded by Master. Cash stipends will also be provided at Master’s discretion, based on quality of work and any other criteria he deems appropriate. If ever the staff meal is insufficient for the Maid’s appetite, Master will provide additional food, which must be consumed in its entirety.

4. Vacation

The Maid shall not be granted any official vacation entitlement; however she may request leave from Master, which can be granted or denied at his discretion.

 

5. Benefits

Master shall at his expense provide the Maid with the Health Plan that is currently in place or as may be in place from time to time. Any and all medical expenses not covered by the Health Plan will also be covered by Master. There will in addition be additional benefits provided by Master at his sole and exclusive discretion.

6. Performance Reviews

The Maid will be provided with a written performance appraisal at least once per week and said appraisal will be reviewed at which time all aspects of the assessment can be fully discussed. In addition, the Maid will be weighed and assessed for fit in her uniform, she will be evaluated on how well she transforms herself into the Master’s ideal servant. If she fails to maintain pace with the prescribed schedule for weight gain, privileges will be revoked, and conversely rewards will be given for overachieving in this arena.

 

7. Termination

(a) The Maid may at any time terminate this agreement and her employment by giving not less than two years written notice to the Master. (b) Master may terminate this Agreement and the Maid’s employment at any time, without notice or payment in lieu of notice, for sufficient cause. Primarily, Maid must show a good faith attempt at transforming herself to match Master’s desired image of a household servant.  (c)  Master may not terminate the employment of the Maid at any time without sufficient cause pursuant to (b) above. (d) Any attempts at weight loss or to otherwise defy the Master’s desires for a full-figured domestic assistant will result in immediate dismissal. (e) The Maid agrees to return any property of the Master at the time of termination.

8. Independent Legal Advice

The Maid acknowledges that the Master has provided the Maid with a reasonable opportunity to obtain independent legal advice with respect to this agreement, and that either:

(a) The Maid has had such independent legal advice prior to executing this agreement, or; (b) The Maid has willingly chosen not to obtain such advice and to execute this agreement without having obtained such advice.

 

9. Entire Agreement

This agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties, superseding in all respects any and all prior oral or written agreements or understandings pertaining to the employment of the Maid by the Master and shall be amended or modified only by written instrument signed by both of the parties hereto. Any and all disputes in interpretations of other language herein shall be resolved in favor of the Master.

 

10. Severability

The parties hereto agree that in the event any article or part thereof of this agreement is held to be unenforceable or invalid then said article or part shall be struck and all remaining provision shall remain in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Master has caused this agreement to be executed by its duly authorized officers and the Maid has set her hand as of the date first above written.
