[quote=Anonymous]I took an 8 week temporary position with the end date being Dec. 12. The position was temporary based could develop into a permanent relationship. DB company decided to keep him stationed here and my MB gave me to be long term. There was just one problem - I don't like the family. I told MB that I am looking for a better fit but will honor my commitment to stay through December 12. There were many reasons why but off the top

- They are constantly late coming home and have under compensated me numerous times.
- MB shot down any all of my opinions or knowledge on subjects. I could never do anything right. 
- Oh, yeah. Her husband gives me the creeps. Constantly checking me out because he works exclusively from home.

A few more but won't divulge anymore. My problem is whether I list this job on my résumé or don't. If I do, I can try to explain away that they weren't a good fit and I left. MB is refusing to give me a good reference. If I say I took personal time then I will have a 3 month work gap. I would like to include this work on my resume but can't provide a reference for obvious reasons. MB is very bitter and spiteful. I've never been in this position..I don't know how to handle it. Thankfully I have plenty experience and excellent references from former families. I don't really need this reference but would have liked to have it. What would you nannies do?[/quote]
