[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think anyone is begrudging nanny time off. I think it is the way nanny handled it. I asked off for one or two extended vacations during career, once for three weeks to kayak down the Grand Canyon. It was during the busy season, but I went to boss with a plan and options. I didn’t just say I’d be gone. I am entitled to my leave of course, but I also did have a job that needed to get done. This nanny didn’t even make a plan. She just said she’d be gone. The family shouldn’t have to say I really need you to work this week because she was already scheduled to work. Nanny just said she’d be gone. If she has worked for them for years, she knows summer coverage is important with no school. She didn’t explain why it was “last minute (admittedly subjective), Come up with suggestions, or even sound appreciative. “I know this is hard for you but I really appreciate it.” Nanny or not, I would not treat my boss this way.
