Cause for firing?

She's not sleeping on the job. She finished the tasks she gets paid to do. She was accessible to your son, who said he didn't need her. She then set a great example by pulling out a book to do some reading rather than plopping down in front of a tv, talking on the phone, or surfing the Internet. She sounds wonderful, and with every new post you sound more and more ungrateful.

Well, that info certainly changes everything. She's working to save for law school? God knows we've already got a glut of bored lawyers, so keep her for as long as you possibly can. On those wages, I think you've got it made. Stop complaining!

Officially calling troll.

No self respecting MB would be this openly stupid and self-centered.

You take your hard-earned money and spend $15 AN HOUR paying someone and then come back to me and tell me now you feel when you catch them doing leisurely activities. This is a job. There's no such thing as "downtime" when you're on the clock. To those of you with office jobs- can you imagine finishing the days tasks and then kicking your feet up in your office and reading a book? I don't think so. If you were a good employee, you'd find other tasks to busy yourself with. Jesus Christ. Today's youth is seriously lacking decent work ethic.

I have plenty of friends in office jobs that seem to find plenty of downtime during their day.

And you keep saying 15 AN HOUR like its some sort of amazing rate. It's really not. Fairly average. I currently make $13/hr (1 kid) and my employers don't expect me to do any house keeping beyond the most basic cleaning up after myself and the kids. You'd have to pay me a lot more than an extra $2/hr to get me to spend every free second scrubbing your fridge.

Thanks for proving my point.

I've called troll on a total of TWO posts on this board, but this one is so obviously fake and is just creating animosity that I had to say something. Let's move on either to real concerns and issues or to fake topics that aren't so inflammatory.

OP is paying $15 after taxes (net) so it is actually more than $2 if you are paid $13/hr gross.

I don't think she's a troll. You aren't being very mature calling her names either.

As if office workers don't spend time making idle chit chat and surfing facebook on the clock. Please!

Exactly!

When did the OP ever state that she is paying taxes to her nanny/housekeeper/assistant? She's probably paying cash.

I love that 15/hour is in capitals. You act as if you are paying her a fortune. The girl has a degree and that is low in many areas even for someone without one. Holy shit - you are horrid.
