"My boss is terrible and my working conditions arw difficult and illegal!"

Um, okay?  If you have better options, why do you still work for them?  If you don't have better options then the family isn't the problem; it's you.  What are you going to do to improve the options available to you?

The nanny market is wide and varied and every time someone says, "I would never accept that treatment," all it really means is that they have better options.  If you also have better options, then let me stress: YOU ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO WORK FOR JERKS!

But in this post alone I see plenty of proof that you aren't all that professional.  Why did you start part time and escalate?  Did you have trouble finding work?  Why did you agree to be paid illegally (since you receive time-and-a-half only on weekends rather than after 40 hours, you are obviously not paid on the books)?  Why are you so concerned with what your employer is doing during the day?  It doesn't matter what ahe is doing with her time or what brands she wears.  You accepted a job to work these duties during these hours.  You are supposed to be a professional providing a service, not a charity caring for the children of deserving poor.  If she is undeserving, who cares as long as her check clears?[/quote]
