Help, my maid is acting passive aggressive, she won't look at me when I talk - she wouldn't even look at me when I asked her why she won't look at me and asked if she is angry about something or doesn't like working here. She was almost rude in her tone and said no, that's just her, keeping her back turned. I've asked her not to use toilet paper to clean the sink, and today I found little bits of toilet paper from her cleaning. I found out that she calls my friend for whom she works full-time "ma'am", yet she addresses me by my first name. I'm uncomfortable when people use my first name without asking my permission - I wouldn't do that at my job - but it's been going on a while and is hard to backtrack.
Let me just say that I am a decent person, respectful, clear in my requests and never abusive or nasty. On the whole, her work is OK but I feel uncomfortable having this hostility in my house and am at a loss as to how to address it. Please, only serious answers.
