| I'm getting mixed reports that the blizzard will start at noon, or 4pm.. Either way I live in Md and work in Va my NF does not have the best record with being on time to relieve me. I'm scared I'm going to get stuck in the blizzard. How should I tell them I can not work tomorrow? |
|
I just told my family that although they'r PREDICTING it hits tomorrow night, it could still come early tomorrow. I live in VA and work in MD and said I could potentially get stuck in a serious storm and I'm worried aboutt aking the risk.
this isn't a storm I'm messing around with |
| Considering this snow isn't out of the blue, you should have discussed this with her earlier, not given less than 24 hrs notice. Your best bet is to be simple "mb I am worried about the snow tomorrow and getting stuck on the road. I will be taking tomorrow off". Really not that difficult |
| MB here - letting our nanny off at 12:00. |
| I would just ask if you can leave early due to the weather. |
| OP I took tomorrow off thanks everyone |
Your generosity is underwhelming. |
Considering that the weather reports are varying between 4 pm and midnight for this storm, noon is quite reasonable... |
Sooner, actually. From Capital Weather Gang:
|
And noon is still plenty of time to be able to drive home if it's supposed to hit around 3. I did hear something about public transit closing. Anyone know anything about Metro not running tomorrow? |
It started snowing around 12:00-'so, not reasonable, is it? |
Maybe; depends on where you live. |
| My nanny left at noon, very happy and home fine. Thank god none you you bitter ungrateful nannies work for me! Dear lord. |
Started snowing is not full blizzard conditions, or even close. If a nanny can't drive herself home when there's a little snow flying, why would you allow her to take your child anywhere when it's snowing or raining. Sorry, this is crazy to me, but I'm capable of driving until it's white-out conditions. |
