[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Give her Christmas Day off as its a Federal holiday and a larger bonus.  Most people don't want the stuff listed.[/quote]

Most nannies already have those days off, PP, plus two weeks.  Who the hell are you working for! [/quote]

I’ve never known a nanny who didn’t have those days off either.  Plus PTO and vacation.

I think the haunting fat troll is back.  [/quote]

I’ve had it “off” once, but as a live-in away from my family, I couldn’t use it.  I’ve worked at least part of all holidays for every other family, and everything except Christmas for that family.[/quote]

So you make the choice to work on Christmas - that’s cool.  The vast majority of nannies have it off.

Even as a live-in nanny, you can demand your days off, PP.  [/quote]

No, I work for people who don’t have the luxury of having the whole day off, [b]who choose to volunteer and help others (and can’t take their kids along)[/b], and who have enough going on with their families descending like locusts that they need my help with their children while they handle everyone else.  I don’t “choose” to work holidays, I’m needed, and my families compensate me accordingly.[/quote]

Good lord. It’s great to volunteer, but if you’re a parent you should try to spend Xmas with your kids.[/quote]
