[quote=Anonymous]My employer ( of a week) just fired me over text( really?). I got sick mid-day( vomiting, dizzy, etc.) and I cared most for the infant child's safety. I alerted the mom who brought in back-up care. I profusely apologized. She sent me a text 6 hours later with just to get my check and they found a new nanny. I called and the mom said because I had been late( once but she was working from home) that it was best I focus on myself. I am a little upset as I made it to work early for them today, include housekeeping duties and they just told me how much they loved me and how happy they were. This is the first time I've been let go in 5 years and I am blindsided. I know it wasn't meant to be but they just gave me keys and gave me their advanced schedule. I guess I didn't see it coming...Do I have a right to be upset or no? I understand the lateness was my fault but I can't control the sickness. I even told her I'd stay but she said it was ok. WTH?[/quote]
