[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an MB.  I would immediately see this as an indicator that you are planning to leave - especially given the "hit a few speed bumps lately".  I can't imagine a way you could frame it that would make me believe anything different.

And if you do have a second job you love why do you need the letter now?

Also, just for the record, as an MB I don't take letters of reference particularly seriously.  I want to speak to your references.  So anything you hand me in a letter is fine, but I pretty much dismiss it if it isn't backed up by direct interaction (phone or email) w/ the person who wrote it.  So I'm really not sure it's worth you pressing for unless you are planning to start interviewing.

Np, and I agree entirely.  I'm unlikely to even read a reference letter actually.  I just want to converse with references.  Anything that was prepared for a nanny's eyes would not be objective.

You sound like a high-maintenance pill. I doubt you can afford to pay a good nanny to put up with that for long. And don't bother claiming you've had the same nanny taking care for you for ten years.[/quote]
