[quote=Anonymous]I worked for my cousin for a short time a year and a half ago and it did not go well. To give a little background, my cousin is about 15 years older than me (in her forties) and we have never been really close, only seeing eachother at Christmas. When she had a child, her and her husband asked if I would nanny for them (I had nannied for 3 years prior). We were both excited about the opportunity to get to know eachother better. Things quickly turned awkward. Two weeks after I began taking care of her 3 month old, her husband began working from home. Soon I began to realize that her husband was telling her lies about me being on the phone all day and basically neglecting their child. His basis for the phone comment is that I was working a second part time job, since I only worked for my cousin 3 days a week, and I got a lot of phone calls from that second job. Having said that, I would only return or take calls when their child was sleeping which is my break time. After 2 months, we parted ways and I haven't talked to my cousin since. Recently, I found out that she had complained to her sister and her sister told her that I was an employee whom she was paying and needed to confront me about being on the phone all day (which was fabricated by her husband). My question is, I have to see her sister (my other cousin) at Christmas and really want to let her know that I would never do what her sister told her I did. Should I say something or just let it go?[/quote]
