NP. You're nuts.

You AGREED. You AGREED to each thing she asked OVER and OVER. She said, "Watch my older kid?" and you said "Sure!" She said "Put this frozen food in the slow cooker?" and you said "Sure!" You had a choice. What she did was to take advantage of someone who didn't stand up for themselves. You can't change her. But you can change yourself.

You are exactly right.

No it's not it is 10.50 in California. The highest minimum wage in the USA is 11.00 per hr. Currently 2 states in the USA have minimum wages of 11.00 per hr those states are Washington state and Massachusetts.

These employers have not committed a crime.

I would just move on. Really no way to protect her next nanny.

Just move the hell on and get a life. I get you're angry but you allowed her to do this you! Grow up, learn and move on

Op here I am not only complaining about the $11 hour but, the way that bitch treat people . I am going to not send her a email or text but I would definitely going to contact a organization that protect domestic worker who suffer discrimination and have been taken advantage off someone has to correct those abusers that think that can get away with discrimination . Why those people reproduce them self, if they don't have any plan for their cries no money to pay for child care and feel entitle to everything . f them

You need to get another position and move on. And you really need to work on your English if you want to earn more, OP. There are great English as a Second Language classes offered in every country -- please take advantage of them.

OP here I don't need them for reference I have a job already but , I do not want they take advantage of other humble lady just because she is from other race. I am very furious but , I guess I should take your advice that is what I am looking for advice from DC Ur

11 is above minimum wage. Just move on.

$11 isnt great but its not terrible either. I assume you knew the rate when you took the job?
The job wasnt working for you so you did the right thing for yourself and got a new job.
I would move on and try and let the resentment go. You may need them for a reference at some point.
Dont burn bridges.

I babysit this family 8 months baby for 3 months . they pay $11 hour 20 hours a week no benefit . Mb ask me to take care her older child for free when there was no school or she was sick,this lady used to leave a note on the counter asking me to put some frozen food in the slow cooker for their diner the lady was a jerk always the way she behave I use my car to drive her child spend a lot of gas they never paid for . when I told them I wasn't going to babysit any more because I got a better job . They both were very mad at me like if they feel entitle for me to watch their children for $200 a week . They where trying to forth me to stay with them the lady is very manipulative. I finish with them but I am so mad that I want to email them and tell them that they are jerks and ass holes and took advantage of my generosity. I clearly notice the way the fat lady looked at me down I am sure she behave like that because I am different race. she feel better than me they don't have the budget to pay for child care they just want nannies to help them for free . I am not a slave for that bi** abusive . Should I send her a text with all I want to say She used me . what would you do DC Urban ? I want to complain go to any organization that can help . I don't want another person get trap with that kind of jerks.
