[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you trying to weasel additional work out of her?

What was your original agreement? Don't sit on your ass?[/quote]

Original agreement included household-related tasks, including dusting and vacuuming main level, and she is doing neither of those. Also errands. Early on it seemed she just didn't think any light housekeeping was "needed" because our house wasn't a complete pigsty. Then it progressed to how busy she  (thinks) she is with other tasks. But from what I'm seeing, unless I specifically give her a task on which to spend her time (e.g, please run this specific errand), it seems she's doing...I don't know what.  Early on I was finding receipts in the car from stores she'd stop at while the kids were in school (for her own errands, not stores where we shop).

Nice assumptions you make, though. Why would wanting to know how she spends paid time constitute weaseling work out of her? She is being paid to work during those hours. If she's not working, I don't particularly want to pay her for it! [/quote]
Did you tell her you wanted a housekeeper? Then don't call her your nanny. She knows, and so should you, that nannies don't do your dusting.

You need to apologize to her and admit you really want a housekeeper who can do also babysitting.[/quote]
 No, the nanny needs to apologize for signing a contract she isn't honoring. Who held a gun to her head?[/quote]
What contract?[/quote]
