[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Update.

I found out this family won't be paying for my meals but that my hourly wage included my meal and activity money.

I called the agency that placed me and they pulled me.

Glad my agency has my back.[/quote]

If you are through an agency this should have been worked out with the agency.  It makes no sense what you are saying.  If they drove you up, how did you get back?  It is not reasonable to expect a 5 star hotel.[/quote]

+1 this doesn't add up. No agency would "pull you" unless the family had done something truly horrifying (sorry, putting you up in a motel doesn't count) or gone back on a contract, but it doesn't even sound like you had anything in writing.

I'm a nanny and have traveled with some NFs and in most cases they haven't paid for my meals, unless they were meals on the clock; usually one or at most two per day. You said in your first post the family is "paying you well," so it makes sense that they thought food, etc would be included in your pay. Also I agree that, while they should've told you about your accommodations at the motel in advance, there is really nothing wrong with them putting you up there, especially if it's just a few blocks away like you said it was.

The fact that none of this was previously addressed makes me question that any agency was involved, because they would've made sure all these details were discussed and agreed to beforehand. It feels like you came here expecting pity, didn't get what you wanted, and are now trying to make it seem like you've "won."  :roll: [/quote]
