MB has moments where she seems irritated or doesn't care

[Anonymous]

Like she was texting me and I mentioned I couldn't find medicine she wanted me to give her DD. She seemed okay in her text but came home and wasn't speaking to me. She regularly comes across abruptly and rude in texts and nitpicks at times when she gets home in a passive aggressive way.
When her DH told her I was upset over an issue concering their daughter, she never spoke to me about it or offered me any support in person despite knowing I had been very upset.
On the other scale, she can be very thoughtful and caring. It it a case of familiarity breeds contempt? I try really hard to be a great nanny but sometimes it never seems enough and I seriously can't work her out. I have started to feel nervous whenever I have to see her or even when I get an email/text from her. It is unnerving not knowing where you are with someone. She says a lot her and DB think I do a great job but her behavior says otherwise.

She sounds moody. Probably has nothing to do with you.

Yeah, you kind of just sound like a drama queen. Maybe she is trying to disengage so that you don't stick around for hald an hour telling her all of your emotions.

Um, I never talk to her about my problems? We don't really have a personal relationship.

Some people aren't able to keep the stress and worry from one part of their lives from spilling over into another. It very likely has nothing to do with you but with work, family, etc., which is why she is very nice to you at other times.

If you don't have a personal relationship, then why are you pissed that she didn't comfort you "even though I had been upset"? Pick a lane.

As it's common decency to check someone is okay, maybe?

No, actually. It would not be common for an employee to a) have an emotional breakdown in front of a supervisor and b) for a second supervisor to draw attention to that unprofessional behavior by bringing it up after the fact unless there was concern about the employee's ability to continue the job. Like I said upthread: you seem to like drama.

For goodness sake, It was hardly a breakdown. It isn't unprofessional behavior to be upset either (You make out I was crying hysterically which is so far from the truth it is laughable.). You seem determined to make out I am being a drama queen when nobody would ever describe me as that. You don't know me in person so stop labeling me.
