[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't say I am living up to this. If the metro is single tracking because someone chose a work day to jump in front of a train then I am late, along with many other metro riders. I honestly don't even have a goal to never be late. I do try to never be late if I can help it, and to have a damn good excuse the rare times it does happen.

I also work more to control my disposition then my mood. If I am having a hard day I won't bring it up or act pitiful. However, there are days when MB just can tell I am less chipper. Whether she would ever learn why depends on the reason. However, she will never be made to feel burdened by my personal problem.

Complaints about texting are really about neglect. If a nanny texts a couple times in the day but is otherwise working her ass off, handling her job like a boss, then parents aren't on here complaining about it.... I hope... So I do text. Often while folding the towels MB didn't get to last night even though it ain't my job.

Kudos to you OP for being 100%. I am something closer to human myself.[/quote]

While I generally agree with you - things happen - there is a huge difference between someone who is late once due to a jumper and someone who is habitually late. And no employee in any business should be moody or bring their problems to work with them in any field.    
And the one thing most parents complain about is seeing nannies walking down the street pushing their children in strollers and talking on their phone or texting at the park or pool.

While OP is asking absolutes, I do think I understand what she is getting at.  Of course, I would have no issue with a nanny who texted or called someone during her lunch or making a quick doctor's or dentist appointment for herself but I do hate seeing nannies constantly on their phones when they are with children.
