[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I understand that these job posts are completely ridiculous I'm not sure why it makes you bitter. The people who post them are either complete idiots or people who have never hired a nanny or known anyone who has and honestly don't know better. Hopefully they will quickly find out no decent nanny would even bother replying to that position. But no one said you have to reply either. I'm not a nanny but I've been looking for a job recently since we are moving out of state. In my profession you unfortunately don't get to know the salary before you are offerred a job and it's considered very bad form to ask. I traveled to go on an interview and in the end the offer was so low it wouldn't even have covered the gas it would take me to get there every day. It was so ridiculous it was laughable. Was I annoyed that I wasted my time on this interview? Yes. Am I bitter? No. Just ignore those job posts and hope those posters get a clue. [/quote]
You seem to be completely missing the point.

If it's illegal, it should not be allowed by care and sittercity.

That's how we normally do things.

I still don't know what that makes you bitter. I think it's perfectly reasonable to be annoyed by the posters stupidity but bitter seems extreme. No one is forcing you to apply for these jobs or even to read those job postings. Just ignore them.

Why would you ignore illegal activity??[/quote]

As a PP pointed out there is unfortunately nothing illegal about posting a job below minimum wage. It's only illegal to actually pay someone less than minimum wage. I'm not saying that's right but that's what the law is so why would you waste your time getting yourself upset about something you can't do anything about? I'm just saying for your own well being instead of letting it upset you and make you "bitter" just ignore it. I'm not saying it's ok for people to post these jobs. I'm just saying maybe we'd all be happier people if we didn't let things we can't do anything about upset us so much. [/quote]
