It's hard psychologically to leave these things in someone else's hands fifty hours a week and one way for MBs to feel as if they are managing things is to give orders and sometimes find fault with seemingly trivial matters. I don't know about this, the MB I work for seems to love hearing about something new I did with the kids while she was at work or a new way I am doing things that makes X activity faster/better/easier. I don't think she has ever reprimanded me for anything. She has asked me to do certain things for specific events (i.e. guests coming into town or a dinner party at the house) but I have never been told "you are doing this wrong please do it this way." My guess is if you are being reprimanded you deserved it for messing up. [Report Post] Or, you happen to have a secure, well balanced MB who knows how treat her employer with respect and dignity.; is capable of engaging in healthy relationships. Verses the MB who is torn with guilt because she is not with her child during the work week. And of course, there really is the MB who is mentally and/or emotionally (dys)functional. [/quote]
