[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How a boss responds to your honest illness is an indication of their integrity, not yours. It's a golden opportunity to access your boss's character. Take careful note and remember for the future. [/quote] Generally true -- but not in the second week of a new job and on a Monday!! I'm a nanny and I would find this worrisome. I agree with PP - go back to work tomorrow and be fricking amazing at your job for the next few weeks. Super nanny terrific. Regardless of what your MB/DB says tomorrow, they are looking at you differently. [/quote] No, OP is already an amazing nanny. She doesn't need to do any differently when she goes back to work. You're the one who'd have a problem, not this nanny, and certainly not her wise MB. Why not learn from their example?[/quote] Human nature. [b]On the sixth day of a new job and the employee calls in sick? Sorry, it's a red flag in any field of employment.[/b] [/quote] This is true. Of course it happens and of course there are legitimate reasons for it - but make no mistake, it is most definitely a "red flag". Not just for nannies but for ANY OCCUPATION so don't be so defensive, Nannies. If I'd called in sick on the monday after my first week at my law firm, I'm sure the partners would have been concerned.
