Senses:
gloss: A female servant employed to do general housework.
pos: noun
examples: Now this honest little fellow being a bachelor, keeps but one servant, which he calls a maid of all work. When he gets drunk, which doth not happen above seven times a week, he is never so happy as when he is expatiating on the virtues of this virgin of his, especially her sobriety.
The Irish maid Betty Flanagan’s bonnets and ribbons, her sauciness, her idleness, her reckless prodigality of kitchen candles, her consumption of tea and sugar, and so forth occupied and amused the old lady almost as much as the doings of her former household […] about which the good lady talked a hundred times a day. And besides Betty Flanagan, Mrs. Sedley had all the maids-of-all-work in the street to superintend.
Directly you come to incomes below a thousand a year, the number of servants is often reduced to a maid-of-all-work, more or less competent according to her wages, which run from seven to fifteen shillings a week. At the former price she knows absolutely nothing; at the latter something of everything. She cooks, washes, sweeps, dusts, makes the beds, clears the baths, and answers the door.
[…] it is difficult to define with clearness the exact duties of the maid-of-all-work. She understands that she is to do cooking, waiting, and chamber-work, and probably washing and ironing.

The only significant change made to meet this new civilization is the great American maid-of-all-work, the Inter-State Commerce Commission.
Sir GEORGE CAVE is the Ministerial maid-of-all-work. Whenever there is a disagreeable or awkward measure to introduce it falls to the Quite-at-Home Secretary, if I may borrow an expression coined by my friend, TOBY, M.P., for one of Sir GEORGE’S predecessors.
The German told us he had been three years in Afghanistan and six months in Mazar, where he acts as maid-of-all-work for bridges, canals, roads, and building in general.
The 12th class engines, introduced by Mr. Gray in 1926, and all built by the North British Locomotive Co. Ltd., forms the largest class on the line and can best be described as "maids of all work".
At the other extreme, we have that true maid-of-all-work type, the 0-6-0, the mainstay of goods, shunting, and often of passenger work right from the earliest days to the present time.

Eagle-eyed Daydreamers were quick to notice the similarities between “Easy On Me” and her longest-leading Hot 100 No. 1 “Hello,” which were both shot in black and white (though the latter is sepia-toned) and feature the same house, Sony Music confirmed.
Her shows, called “A Weekend with Adele,” scheduled to run weekends through April, were expected to be the most lucrative residency in Las Vegas history. They’ve been indefinitely postponed, the singer announced in a Twitter video Thursday. The cancellation has fueled skepticism and disappointment among Adele’s Daydreamers, her fandom.
