I don't care if somebody has a 200 IQ and climbs Mt. Everest each weekend for grins, if they toot their own horn about it, it completely negates any admirtation I may have otherwise had for whatever it was. I think this is true for many people.<br /><br />(Just something to think about when you are dealing with "real life" people that you must see repeatedly...if you want to have freinds and be well liked and respected anyway. Otherwise, count on all of those people you think so envy and admire you actually talking behind your back about how pretentious you are whenever you leave the room.)momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-87529992829511924022009-08-29T10:47:41.167-04:002009-08-29T10:47:41.167-04:00At one nanny job a few months in, the MomBoss aske...At one nanny job a few months in, the MomBoss asked me, "Do you ever swear?"

Sometimes, especially on high humidity days, a nanny can get to the end of her rope. However, I do say it under my breath or just within earshot of my friend. I don't go and make a scene at the library, cussing and yelling at librarians. I'm calling a bit of BS on this sighting, seems overly exaggerated from a nanny that is just a little too full of herself.MissMannahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-56737083173734187162009-08-28T16:33:08.253-04:002009-08-28T16:33:08.253-04:00The only thing I find odd is the nanny would talk ...The only thing I find odd is the nanny would talk to this <i>Librarian</i> like that.

Agree with the other 2 comments o...hahahahhaahha. <br />Agree with the other 2 comments obviously. <br />The nanny sounds like some girls I am (kind of) friends with (not in NY though), who say the most inappropriate things in front of anyone and don't think anything of it. The girl that cuts my hair says "fuck" all the time and talks about her sex life AT her salon while cutting my hair with 65 year old coworkers and their clients next to us. <br /><br />Not nanny material, but mildly entertaining to talk to. I'm hoping she wasn't speaking like this in front of your charge, OP, since you were with a 5 year old. Honestly, if she was just with a 2 year old, the kid probably didn't notice although hopefully she doesn't talk like that often in front of her charge. The conversation you had with her would almost make sense if she thought in the first place that she was talking to another nanny and not to a librarian.laughingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-39813352382987564582009-08-28T12:42:21.114-04:002009-08-28T12:42:21.114-04:00The nanny who wrote this is annoying.The nanny who wrote this is annoying.dawlfacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13069621919936143826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-59946303168259127242009-08-28T12:24:34.923-04:002009-08-28T12:24:34.923-04:00Bad nanny sighting, yes.

First of all, it's spelled "savvy" and "exceedingly". Secondly, does this just permeate from your pores or something?
