[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There may be other reasons I work for my employer but none of that matters if I can't continue to pay my bills while working for them. If my employers cut my pay I will not be able to stay. I won't tell them that of course, just quietly begin my job search. It may be difficult but if there are people working, there are people who need childcare. It may mean stringing together part time work. [/quote]

I'm 13:22, and I get it, I do.  There are probably some Federal employees who will similarly be quietly looking for other jobs as Federal employment and contracting becomes less secure.  I just wanted to say that nannies should know that if their employee proposes "furloughing" them the one day a week that they will be furloughed, that it may not be because they're cheap or don't like the nanny - they may really need to cut back, particularly if both parents are Feds.  Certainly as a nanny, you're well within your rights to take that as indication that you should start looking elsewhere.  But know that it's probably not the best time to be looking either.  It sucks for everybody.  [/quote]
