Or cleaning toilets (with a toothbrush?! People really do that?!) And not demanding payment for that. <br />I am a very patient person (most days, haha), but if one of my MB's EVER snapped their fingers at me, that would be my very last day. I view myself and conduct myself like the professional service I am. I highly value myself as a person because if I don't no one else will. You set your own self worth. If my boss decideds to treat me like I am less than worthy of being called by my name, that's fine. It's their issue. I'll serve the end of my day, correct them on their behavior as professionally as I possibly can before leaving, and then let them know I am terminating our arrangement effective immediately.<br />Then I would get on ISYN and bitchbitchbitchBITCH because people are crazy and this is the best place and way to vent. :)<br /><br />I hope your next adventure is a better one OP!

Y...Well congratulations on persuing your education. You won't ever regret it! Too bad about the families. I learned the hard way how to react to abuse of my time. The very first time someone is later than the allowed ten minute leeway, I immediately request extra cash to compensate me. I will say, "As per our agreement, you were to be here @ 6:00PM. You arrived @ 7:30. So you owe me $x, due tomorrow when I arrive. "But I called & said I would be late." "I know, if you hadn't as per our contract you would've owed me double." I wouldn't allow anyone to get away with not paying me for my time. Ever. And nannys don't clean toilets. It makes me sick what some lazy & cheap parents will expect out of the person they've hired for their childrens benefit!! Also, so glad you quit after the finger snapping. I am so crazy, no doubt, I would've spilled a drink on MB "accidently." I just don't tolerate being treated like garbage very well & I am big on turning the tables! What a b! I agree with MM that you treat people how to treat you. Its great that you were going to quit. But your post sure sounds like you tolerated A LOT of BS! I hope you enjoy your time @ school.

So in that instance, yes I did stay in a bad situation, for the good of the child, not because I was not able to stand up for myself. If you noticed right before that, since you were reading so carefully, I said I was planning on leaving that position, I wanted to secure another position before I did so. It is obvious that you are not trying to make friends, when I originally made that comment, I was not literally suggesting that you were seeking friends, silly me, I thought that was obvious. Allow me to rephrase. It is evident not many enjoy your presence on this site, I wonder why that is?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-76378314557552829362012-08-19T00:19:31.369-04:002012-08-19T00:19:31.369-04:00I did read your post carefully.

However, you did stay in a bad situation when you didn't have to:<br /><br />"They recently moved, only telling me a month beforehand. I had been planning on quitting but since they were moving, I did not want to leave them stranded with no Childcare and forced to find a nanny for a month, so I worked until the end. Once it was over, I declared I would not be treated this way again and drove down to the college and applied and registered."<br /><br />I can see how you got burnt out and want to pursue something different, but you have to admit that the families were treating you exactly how you "trained" them to do so.<br /><br />I do not go to websites hoping to "make friends."
