This logic is seriously flawed. No. A reasonable person would not EXPECT these things. However, if it were discussed upon hiring said house cleaner/daycare operator that they would also prepare bottles/scrub toilets and then, at a later time, they balked against it because"it's not their job" I suspect someone would be fired. OP knew adult laundry was expected and she accepted the position with this caveat. She now has no leg to stand on with her complaints. If you don't want to do laundry (think it's beneath you or not what a "nanny" does) DON'T AGREE TO DO IT. Some of you women are pretty dense. |
+1. I can totally understand why you wouldn't want to do their laundry and I actually agree its not really in a nanny's typical job description to do family laundry. BUT typical doesn't matter. If you agreed to it before you were hired it's pretty unprofessional to complain now. If you decide this isn't the right job for you or want to try to renegotiate that's just fine as long as you do it maturely and respectfully. But complaining about something you agreed to in the first place is juvenile. |
I'd think that no respectable adult would hand off "accident" underware to anyone, much less a nanny. Maybe they're the ones who seriously believe you are "their" nanny. Lol. It's so pathetic. Someone babied them too long, or maybe not long enough, and they're trying to reclaim their infancy. Who knows? |
Nobody here is denying the fact that she accepted the job with adult laundry as a dutie. What most people here are debating is why an adult would want her child's caretaker to handle filthy underwear. I do adult laundry too (without complaint) but my MB has enough tact to realize that I dot want to wash undergarments covered in secretions, blood or other human waste. You are a complete c**t. Merry Christmas. |
At least if you are going to anonymously insult someone on the internet check for typos and have some follow through. It's okay though. We all know you meant to call me a cunt. |
Is that all you've got? I spelled one word incorrectly. When you have no argument-point out a spelling error. Good job. If you were standing in front of me and said something like you did...I would still call you a cunt....to your silly, silly face. |
Some women are just sorry bitches and you feel sorry for their poor children. |
Harry Truman washed his own underwear and he was making life and death decisions affecting the entire world. Expecting a nanny to do your filthy laundry shows how common you are. |
NP here. You actually spelled two words wrong. |
Go to sleep, 22:24. Thanks. |
I grew up with nannies, and my parents had us washing our OWN underwear at an early age. Maybe it's a tropical thing. |
I wouldn't expect my nanny to wash my undergarments. I can separate them and do them on my own time. |
Good lord, I wouldn't touch their filth and would refuse to do tjeir laundry. Gross. Disgusting. |
In this day in age where all you need to do is toss laundry into a washing machine and then into a dryer that's right next to the washer...everyone should do their OWN laundry.
I would never ask my nanny/babysitter to do my laundry. That's ridiculously stupid. |
Likewise, if the person you are hiring to do said laundry has to merely do the same, with as little contact as possible, why is she complaining? |
