[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just started a new nanny position last week, I had two trial shifts which were great. The family notified me I could "borrow" my sick time if needed. We hadn't signed a contract yet but were due to do so today. They had sent me a copy of the contract which worked great and had a generous amount of sick and paid leave.

This morning I woke up sick and [b]texted them 20 minutes before I was supposed to start[/b] and asked if I could "borrow" my sick time for today.

I received a text a few hours later that the mom had decided to quit her job and stay home. She said they've had such difficulty with reliable childcare and is going to have her mom come in and help.

Ok, fine, whatever lady. But I still think it's a little harsh to fire me for missing one day or trying to access benefits that she had promised?![/quote]

Are you for real?  Nannies like you who have no respect for the families they work for are a disgrace.  What the hell did you expect those parents to do in 20 minutes?  You're awful.[/quote]
