My AP is SOOOOO wasteful also. BUT, not with her items. She will use half a tube of $10 diaper rash cream on one diaper, 30 oz's of dish soap in one week (WE HAVE A DISHWASHER AND ONLY HAND WASH POTS AND PANS), a thick stack of wipes when changing a small poopy diaper, cook WAY too much food for the kids and throws it away when surprise surprise, they dont eat it etc. It is getting on my last nerve! I noticed that her facewash in the bathroom hasnt gone down much in months, so she DOES know how to use things without excess. [/quote]

I know this post is years old, but when I saw this post, I thought Yes!!!  That sounds a lot like DC's nanny.  She goes through, I kid you not, 32 oz. of dish soap in TEN DAYS.  I have told her NOT to hand wash dishes (we have a dishwasher) except a handful of things that add up to maybe five items daily.  But she washes everything, which is annoying because she does a mediocre job (I always find crud on dishes she washes) and probably would do better if she washed just the few things I asked and she often leaves something or another not done, which she could have done if she left the dishes!  Plus, even with washing all the dishes, I still don't get how you can use up a full-sized bottle of dish soap in less than two weeks...!

Also, I try to always have an extra whatever it is, pack of diapers, box of oatmeal, tube of eczema, but occasionally it slips my mind and we're on say our last pack of diapers.  I've asked the nanny DOZENS OF TIMES please please let me know if we run low of something so I can get more before we run out.  She NEVER does.  Back when I kept asking her to do this, she would tell me once out of maybe ten times.  I got so tired of being a broken record and not getting through to her that I've stopped asking her.  Now she never tells me.  It has happened that I came home from work early and before heading to the drugstore, I asked the nanny, is there anything we need for the baby?  She said no.  I left, came back, nanny left.  As I'm getting DC ready for bed, I notice there are ZERO DIAPERS.  Luckily, I had a spare in the diaper bag, but I was pissed!  And this happens all the time.  I swear that the nanny has something mental going on.[/quote]
I really can't even imagine letting the diapers run low. These people need training on how to be a nanny, don't you think?[/quote]
