[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Excuse me? I'm appalled. My nanny first text me this morning to see if I was off, I work from home so unless it's impossible to get here or the Internet is out then I'm working. She's supposed to show up at 12:30pm. Her text around 8am was that she was going to come at 1pm (her usual start time however this month we agreed she would start at 12:30pm). Although it isn't a huge inconvenience because I don't actually start until 1:30 I just got a bad vibe from her text. Her reasoning was because she's not sure how bad the roads are. I understand wanting to be safe, etc but my thoughts are that you need to plan accordingly to be to work at your scheduled time.[b] I feel as though she thinks because im not actually working she can show up at her desired time[/b]. Apart from a previous last minute call out over something she could of gave us notice to, she is a great nanny. Am I overreacting? I did want to run a few quick errands. [/quote]

Stop assigning her motives. Tell her what you expect and, if you worry she's going to be a flake, hire someone else. [/quote]

It will never do you any good with anyone to try and assign them negative motives, just communicate with her.[/quote]
