[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]During workhours my nanny is surfing the internet on her phone.  I was wondering how many hours per day you find yourself surfing or chit-chatting if you add them all up?[/quote]

Plenty.

My day has included the following things for which I used WiFi/data:
Ordering cupcakes online, party and classroom, oldest child
Looking up pictures of otters eating sea urchins for middle child
Clipping coupons in store
Looking up distances to minimize time in the car
Looking up book order for four series, oldest child
Looking up hours for goodwill, food bank
Checking and responding to email from MB/other employee
Changing ongoing activity in kids’ schedule online
Looked up ingredients for experiments with kids
Looked up a few recipes
Looked up a few series to recommend to oldest
Texted mb, other employee
Checked kids’ devices
Called other employee
Called my relative during downtime at child’s activity
Looked up articles on child psychology
Looked up articles on parent dealing with various child issues
Looked up and purchased various household needs
Emailed food bank requests/monthly donation total to various people

I’m sure I forgot a few things.  My phone lives in my pocket, and for this position, I couldn’t do my job without it.

In other positions, it wasn’t necessary or was not allowed.  It’s one of the many things I negotiate in my contracts.[/quote]
