No he didn't, he's hired maids who would otherwise be maids for someone else. But now the company they came from has to hire 8 new maids. If his business model is superior, he may eventually drive the old company out of business and employ at least as many maids as they did. Even if he only employed the same amount as the old company, he is providing more value to his customers, either through increased efficiency or lower costs. So even in the case of there being no new jobs created, creative destruction has again moved our economy forward. Judging by how fast his first maid came to his company, I doubt he pays them less (I didn't see him mention this).
