I caught my MB going through my personal bags (my purse and backpack). I'm floored to say the least. I would never have expected her to do this to me, as she says I am one of the best nannies she's ever had.
I asked her what she was doing and couldn't come up with anything. She was very surprised that I walked in on her (I was outside with her kids playing in the pool and had to come in to get them drinks). It's a complete breach of trust (and I've been with this family for over a year). I definitely need to find another position, but can't go without pay. I really don't want to stay in this house another minute. I'm just going to keep everything in the car (and locked) until I find something new, but this just got very awkward. |
Oh my God! What did she say? |
OP here, she told me that she heard my cell phone start ringing and that she wanted to bring it out to me. I keep my phone in the car and check it when I head home for the day. That's how I knew she was lying. |
I wonder why now? Of you have been with them over a year why suddenly start searching your bags now? Wouldn't you do that when u first hire someone? It's completely unacceptable but I'm just curious as to why |
How odd. Almost unbelievable. Actually, very unbelievable.
You should quit. Today. No notice. |
OP here, I'm out of here as soon as I find another position. I really need the money. Grad school isn't cheap, you know? I'm just going to be on top of my belongings until that happens. |
Wow. I would have lost my shit if she was my employer. What an invasion of your privacy. Definitely start looking ASAP. What could she possibly have been looking for? |
I'm sure you've snooped threw out her house many times. Maybe she was missing something and wanted to see if you took it? I'm NOT on her side and if I were you I would leave immediately but i'm just saying. |
NP here but I have never, ever snooped through my employer's home. EVER. I don't even open the desk drawers. Why would you assume OP had done that?! |
Go away |
you left the kids in the pool by themselves?? |
PP,we had a neighbor over with their kids, so she watched them while I went inside. |
I caught a MB reading my journal that had previously been left in my room. I did quit. One of the worst families Ive ever worked for. Vienna. Doane. if that rings a bell OP |
Am I the only one who wouldn't care? I would believe my mb if she said she heard my phone ringing. But I guess that's just how I am... What do you all keep in your bags? |
honestly it wouldn't bother me if I found my boss looking through my purse or car as there isn't anything in there I worry about her finding.
I can understand you being annoyed but I would sit down with her and talk to her. Maybe she is just paranoid sometimes people do stupid stuff. |
