[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I get a snow day at work all that means is that I can do my computer work from home.  None of my deadlines move.  If nanny does not come then I end up staying up late (sometimes through the morning) finishing up projects.  I would be happy to give the nanny a day of on the snow day if she offers to come on the weekend when it is safe and let me finish my work.  If it's all just about nanny's safety then it should work.   It's just the nannies I came across would jump on not having to come in if it snows a little bit but noone offers to make up the hours.

I am an employer.  I do not really get snow days though.  I just get the opportunity to finish my work from home.  If nanny gets the snow means she gets to finish the work on a different day like I am then I am fine it[/quote]

You are insane. [/quote]

Do you even have a nanny?[/quote]

No, but I am a nanny and I would resent you for making me make up snow days. Let's just hope your nanny doesn't feel the same way.[/quote]

Our nanny been with us for three years.  She gets a lot of paid days of as our family travels a lot.  6-7 weeks paid vacation make up for possible resentment I think

My only point is that nannies want the same treatment as office workers.  Office workers like me do not just get the snow days of.  My work does not stop.  Why should the nanny's?[/quote]

Just because your manager is an asshat doesn't mean you have to be one to your nanny.
It's a matter of safety.  Bottom line: it is not safe to drive.
How exactly do nannies (you're generalizing BTW) want to be treated like office workers?
Fair pay, benefits...?  [/quote]
