Agreed. We should let the linguistics drop. And congratulations on English being your third language. ^ I would never have guessed. I wish I had your skills in mastering foreign languages.

To bring it back on target, does anyone know how much housekeepers are paid?. My recollection ( which is often wrong ) is that in San Francisco major hotels, they were making about $11/hr at the expiration of the last contract. Not great money, especially for the Bay area, but not poverty, either.
