[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]19:49 My MB only works 3 days a week and has the ability to do half days the other 2 days. I am there for 3 really long days and a few hours the other 2 days. I still get 40 hours a week and sometimes a bit more if they do date night. The rare times she has ever missed work she decided to do a half day within a week of their appointment and re-scheduled them for that time. She would never cancel and leave them hanging for months. I feel that because she has the ability to easily work a half day she could have done so for this occasion.[/quote] [b]so what about those patients who took pto or vacation time, paid a diet, drive am hour, paid for parking etc. they just need to sick it up because you don't do vomit even though your job is to take care of kids?[/b] I get that you were tired. You could have said no. You could have said yes with the caveat that if you get sick you're expecting sick days and/or hotel refund. You didn't. Deal with it and stop whining.[/quote]

Are you seriously suggesting that I, as a nanny, am responsible to my employer's PATIENTS? No. Just no.

This forum needs to get itself together. Either nannies are lowly, unskilled staff who ought to go out and learn something "harder" if they want to be paid more/fairly (depending on who you ask) or they are critical cogs in our society who keep businesses running and ensure doctors' patients keep their appointments. The way you put it makes it sound like a pretty important job, doesn't it? In which case, I think we ought to expect to be treated as such.
