[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. Next time nannies want to argue that they aren't the "help", please see PP who makes it clear that the nanny is not a family member, not friend, just an employee.  No need to treat otherwise. Throw cash at nanny and skip over the niceties you'd use for a friend or family member. [/quote]

No. Treating the nanny as an employee rather than a family member means understanding that they work for compensation, not as a favor to you. [/quote]

Has there been any debate over whether she should be compensated?  No. The discussion has been around whether it is insensitive to ask for and be offended by not receiving payment on the Monday following a weekend death. If the nanny was called at 3 am, what do you think the MB was up to?  Lounging around enjoying cocktails, or rushing to see a loved one before she died?  Same goes for the rest of the weekend. This wasn't a vacation for the MB. Nanny went from looking compassionate to looking solely concerned with money the minute she asked (on Monday) for the extra comp. Totally fine to ask for it a week later, but the immediate ask is a bit much. [/quote]
