[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nannies on here seem to think their job is in some special category that doesn't require flexibility.[/quote] What kind of flexibility are you talking about? Should I come into work as early as my employers want? Should I stay as late as they want? Should I do all of their cleaning just to be a team player? Should I allow them to pay me late because they need me to be flexible? Should I allow them to loan me out like a dish? Should I allow them to shift my hours to their convenience? Should I let them bank my hours to get around guantanteed pay? Where does " flexibility" end? "Flexibility" is just a fancy way of saying " doormat."[/quote] The same flexibility a non-nanny job has. To never be 1% flexible because flexibility in its extreme is what you describe is absurd. Nannies want to be treated and paid like "professionals" while acting like factory workers who will only do one task, no matter what.[/quote] SOME nannies are professionals, most are sitters waiting for your constant instructions. And most parents can only afford a sitter. That's why those parents are here complaining all the time. "You get what you pay for." It's really true.[/quote]
