[quote=Anonymous]I think taking Friday off for a sinus infection is a reasonable action -- doesn't she get PTO? As for the dentist, that is very reasonable -- I'm a nanny and the only time I can make dr or dentist appts is if I come in late or leave early. I don't have a lunch hour that I can quickly run to an appt and get back without taking any time off. That is just something that you have to accommodate, within reason of course. I try to either make my appt first thing in the morning or last in the evening so it is the least inconvenient for my employer, give a month in advance (if possible), and only do it about once or twice a year. The four days is a little extreme and I would be annoyed but watch your nanny to see if this is an ongoing thing. Maybe she was very close to the grandmother or maybe this is the start of a downward spiral where she takes 2 days off for the sniffles. The 4 days for the funeral don't bode well but I don't think the dentist and sinus infection shoudl count against her[/quote]
