I can't get to work - Need advice ASAP!

[Anonymous]

You all are rough. Im in DC and you know what pussies we are about snow. I always let my nanny come in late or leave early when it snows....same respect my employer affords me.

I've heard enough whining and complaining from OP to never come in DCuM again. Fix your attitude already.

Even though I live 10 away, it took me an hour to get home on just 1 bus.

I felt like I did out in effort and I did go in. No effort would be me calling off instead of trying to get there. MB is still not talking to me much, not is DB.

Glad you could help them that day

I don't find anything too funny. It is incredibly difficult to work at home effectively with children running about. so get over that. And of course they didn't go in to the office, they had no idea if their nanny was going to make it in, when. so get over that too.

The funny part was neither actually worked. I was there while they did laundry, cleaned up, furbished their place ( its a new home), and MB cooked dinner while DB watched tv. I put the baby to bed and then left.

So they did house work instead of work work... so?

No that's bs. I would have been pissed. If it was too dangerous for them to make the trip out and they stayed home to just veg out and do house work but made her come in. That's messed up

This story is odd. I can see how MB or DB would have needed to call off since nanny was not there and so they had already burned a vacation day by the time she came in but did not want to let OP off the hook. But I don't understand why they both would have had to do that. Very odd.

Usually I would agree with you, but in this case they were likely unsure whether OP would actually show up or not. They could have both stayed home to trade off on childcare, while trying to get some things done.

If OP had showed up on time, only to find her employers called out because they didnt feel like traveling in the snow, yes, that would be an asshole move, and OP would have every right to be pissed.

OP didn't show up until 1:30, obviously her employers had to figure something else out. if they did chores while watching the kid since they had to take the day off bc OP is flaky, then that's their decision. She showed up like 5 hours late why should she judge what they do?

[Anonymous]

I'm OP. yes I was late but I still showed up. Anyway MB and DB didn't plan on working that day or going into the office. She even said after yelling at me that they didnt need to work that day.

[Anonymous]

This is a strange thread, seems like problems on both ends and that this is not the best match, issues with communication all around.

You're working really hard to portray your NF as being awful employers, OP. Too hard.

I wish op was a troll, but I'm pretty sure she's just an idiot. Hopefully she's replaced. If I had kids, would never want her to watch them.
