[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Team nanny here.  Having the nanny help with the moving was the icing on the cake for me.  Having her do that, whether you paid her or not, shows that you didn't respect her.  Never in a million years would I ask a child care provider to do that.  [/quote]

Sadly this is the millennial attitude all around. “Not my job” whenever they are asked to do the slightest thing different or extra and the first question is always “will you pay me extra?” You will not meet anyone who did well at a job who did not occasionally do something beyond that job, and in this case it sounds like it was not that much to do.[/quote]

I'm a millennial and I'm 35. Typical Gen X to use the term "millennial" as a generalized insult.  :roll: [/quote]

Also to the PP, if you want to be a doormat and help your employer move, go ahead.  Millennials are part of a very welcome shift of pushing back on being taken advantage of by employers and enjoying work-life balance that prior generations didn't enjoy.  [/quote]

I would certainly rather live my life for me and my family than a company!  [/quote]

Right, because paying the nanny an extra $250 to transport a few lightweight bags a mile away while she was on the clock is completely interfering with her ability to live her life. You all are really too much.[/quote]

No, I don't think she should have asked her to do it at all.  I moved when I had a nanny, the only difference she saw was that she left our apartment one day and showed up at our house the next day.  We moved a big carful of toys after the kids went to bed to make sure that she had things to play with with the kids and distract them while we were doing moving logistics the next day.

The OP of this thread showed up in the "college educated nanny thread" saying she wanted the same thing. So she wants a college educated nanny and also wants her to help her move?  GMAFB[/quote]
