[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This isn't that different than a nanny trying to change her schedule, or change the terms of her contract. You all act like that is something unforgivable and a firing offense. Don't "ask" your nanny to work a holiday, unless you are one hundred percent sure she would jump at the money, or that she has the cajones to tell you no.

To the MB who said she is cooking for 40 people and "needs" the extra help, ask yourself how poor people manage it, and let your nanny have her day off. [/quote]

I work hard to make sure I don't HAVE to live like a poor person. [/quote]

Lots of people work hard and are still poor. How about working hard to be kind and considerate. Your desire for extra hands on a family holiday should not trump your nanny's right to be with her family. The fact that you think it does, says you should work harder at being a good person. [/quote]

Settle down. My desire for extra hands is simply because ... I could use an extra set of hands. The nanny has four days in a row off; and I am asking if she wants to work half of one before festivities begin. People need to grow some balls and have both confidence and backbone. If she doesn't want to work, just say that. It's that simple. [/quote]

Why not ask family/close friends like NORMAL people would at a holiday dinner?[/quote]
