Make a PB&J sandwich to eat on the train. You can buy little baggies of nuts and Goldfish and all sorts of other things. You definitely don't have to go hungry, you just need to invest in some portable food!anonynannynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-87611302424667625912010-04-18T06:50:32.677-04:002010-04-18T06:50:32.677-04:00re-post for anonymous:

Seemed like a great couple BUT gradually they do nothing but complain. always in a polite way but constant fault finding and no, never one compliment or good job etc.<br /><br /> The kids love me, I do a lot more than my job description was originally. I often stay 30-90 min late with little notice without complaint.<br /><br /> The complaints have worn me down. Ive nannied for 22 years and never gotten anything but praise before.<br /><br /> The complains are petty, like did I see her earrings? when I say no...she smiles slightly and raises her brows as if Im lying? She got angry that the baby comes to me before her..um..Im with baby 50-60 hous a week, with Mom 1 hour a dat weekdays.<br /><br /> She points at every scratch on furniture and paint chip and fingerprint on a wall and asks if I did it. accused me of flushing baby wipes( which I did not ever do) down toilet. It just goes on.<br /><br /> Been here 14 months, been looking for new jon for 4 months, nothing. I cant quit my husband is ill and cant work.<br /><br /> If parents realized the stress and misery their little petty barbs cause...they might think before making idiot remarksanon readernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-63587718235955100222010-04-18T03:05:29.751-04:002010-04-18T03:05:29.751-04:00Sucky situation but if you have time for 4 cups of...Sucky situation but if you have time for 4 cups of tea a day surely you have time to grab a bite to eat!chunkydunknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-80313078129767887272010-04-17T20:25:17.152-04:002010-04-17T20:25:17.152-04:00sounds like these kids would be better off if they...sounds like these kids would be better off if they were raised by hampsters than these worthless parents, I will never understand why some people have kidsmonkeyshinesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-20972510725014838112010-04-17T18:50:15.214-04:002010-04-17T18:50:15.214-04:00OH I just love that you say half seven- how adorab...OH I just love that you say half seven- how adorable.

Yes I know, "a nanny is a luxury item so nanny employers haven't been affected by the recession". Keep your fingers crossed.<br /><br />The dad sounds like a clueless twit, and why the hell are kids being packed off to bed at 5 pm?? That might last aother 3 months, tops. But it's not so impossible to plan ahead and eat something besides a bite of toast btwn 6am and 4pm, or why not eat some of whatever the kids are having for dinner instead of starving and venting about it?cali momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-73817172032876047672010-04-17T10:11:25.670-04:002010-04-17T10:11:25.670-04:00What a perfect illustration of what many nannies e...What a perfect illustration of what many nannies endure...not all, but I have heard similar stories. <br /><br />Kudos to you for sticking it out for nine months. And kudos to you for leaving...in this economy it is tough to find work, but not so tough that one has to endure this type of physical and mental punishment.

It's very sad and fascinating how a parent can hire someone for what is supposed to be a very loving job, and then treat that person like dirt. I don't get it and I don't think I ever will. They will be better suited to find a daycare.PinkNannynoreply@blogger.com
