[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP the answer is pretty simple.

Do what you need to do, jump ship if you want, no one is going to say you can't do that.

But remember, you went on interviews, conversed on the phone or over email, made promises, etc. You and the family that hired you both agreed on certain things, such as wanting the job and wanting to work together for a year or more. There is such thing as common decency. If the family that hired you got a call back from an amazing nanny who originally told them she couldn't take the job and fired you after a month to hire her instead you would not be happy and everyone would think they are scum. If you bail on them you are the scum.

Think about what you are asking, it's only for a $1 an hour more..... how petty. I hope no one ever hires you again as you will obviously bail at any moment chasing 50 cents here or a dollar there.[/quote]

Do you know how many people leave their jobs for an offer with better money, a shorter commute, etc.?

I'm no leaving solely for the money. I have a better fit personality wise and no commute. As others have said, this family would drop me in a heartbeat if he had to. I am not their slave and they do not own me. I making a decision that is the best for me and my future happiness. This does not make me evil or scum. This makes me a human being searching for a better opportunity in life. [/quote]
