[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nannies can be fired anytime. They know when MB asks them to come in on a holiday that she wants them to say yes. Otherwise she wouldn't be asking - she would be assuming they might have their own plans and would at least try to find that information out first. Nannies know that if they say no they are jeopardizing a raise, a bonus, and even their job. The MB will be frustrated that nanny won't be flexible and come in on the holiday and will get resentful remembering that one time they let her go early at her request and now she won't even come in to help them.  Does the MB really care if the nanny had plans or if she wants to come in - no, she needs an extra set of hands or she needs childcare. Nanny has to decide between standing up for herself against what MB wants (and being seen as inflexible, difficult, selfish, etc) or just give up her own plans to keep the peace and keep her job.[/quote]

This is silly. Of course when anyone asks someone to do something they want the person to say yes. It is ridiculous to think I, as an MB, would fire someone or not give them a COL raise or end of year bonus for not doing things outside of their job description. It seems like you equate the word employer with the word enemy. [/quote]
