[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just say NO.
No, I cannot work on the weekend.
No, I cannot stay late tonight.
You need to set boundaries you are happy and comfortable with. 
MB here.[/quote]

Easier said than done! The last MB I had would hold it against me if I didn't agree to come in on a weekend or stay late. I did do that on occasion but if I ever said no.... you could bet I wouldn't get a day off I requested a month or two in advance. She was very petty. I finally quit when she texted to asked if I could stay an extra 30min even though I had already stated an extra two hours. I said I couldn't because I had dinner plans. She never responded and showed up 45min late. She claimed she never saw my text. :evil: [/quote]

You begin the job with setting boundaries.  Flexibility works both ways.  Also, when you want a day off, you tell her, you do not ask.  You wirk and earn your vacation/sick/PTO, whatever it is called.  If you are sick, do not be guilted into coming in.

These MB scream about wanting "professional" nannies and they need to start acting professional themselves.

Stop allowing these women to be your warden.  Assert yourselves.[/quote]
