[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL at the poster saying it is unprofessional. I moved to a different state for this job and my best friend came to visit. She tagged along w/ my charge and I for two days during the week that she was here. My MB was fine w/ it. Who cares? My charge is still my top priority and I am not going to abuse sick leave. We did the same things we would do every day except my best friend joined us. That's it. [/quote]

Sorry, PP.  I'm glad it worked out for you, but that doesn't mean that all MBs are going to be fine with it.

Professional - "characterized by or conforming to the technical or ethical standards of a profession (2) : exhibiting a courteous, conscientious, and generally businesslike manner in the workplace" - asking if your friend can tag along may be fine with your MB, but it doesn't really qualify as "professional."  Professional doesn't mean "I did it at my job and it turned out fine."

I would also caution any nannies considering things like this that if you want to be treated by your employers as a qualified professional, that asking if your buddy can tag along for the day is probably going to hurt your MB's perception of you.  If this is just a job to you and you don't care about being seen as professional, then by all means ask and your MB might be totally fine with it.
