I eat fresh chicken breasts or tenders, and fresh fruit and veggies, plus eggs and cheese. Give her a weekly list, starting when you return the food; eat out of her fridge until she shops for you.

Tell ...This is not an acceptable selection of food. Tell your friend that its up to her to stick up for her self. You can't do her negotiations for her. I think its reasonable for a live in to expect that she is either A.) provided with a weekly food allowance, B.) the family provides fresh-- not process food, C.) Pay her an overall higher wage and specify that meals aren't covered. <br /><br />C is a poor option, because live ins work very long hours.<br /><br />A for your friend is also a poor option, because where is her nanny car?<br /><br />Lacynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-14960977286101534752015-07-15T10:07:33.972-04:002015-07-15T10:07:33.972-04:00Did she provide a list of food for the mother?

Is she expecting to eat like a king? Does she want steak and lobster? This is breakfast and dinner.

I'm assuming your friend isn't a child, so as a grown-up it's up to her to let the family know this meal plan (lol) isn't working for her. If she's the kind of person who doesn't even have the backbone to bring that up, she's gonna get taken advantage of in all kind of fun ways (probably none as funny as this picture) and keep looking to you to fix it. Help her help herself by learning to deal with problems in her job on her own.this_nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00318803218118396311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-13921072044214417332015-07-14T13:26:44.736-04:002015-07-14T13:26:44.736-04:00Maybe something like I CANT CHASE AFTER YOUR KIDS ...Maybe something like I CANT CHASE AFTER YOUR KIDS IF IM LIVING OFF PROCESSED CARBS Pantrylyfenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-44344485548113459292015-07-14T12:50:33.688-04:002015-07-14T12:50:33.688-04:00I'm not familiar with live in situations, but...I'm not familiar with live in situations, but does thr NF provide food?

Maybe ask for a stipend instead of their selection and nanny will pick up what she'd like. Or ask if the family if she can just give them a short list and could they get those items. I would probably say something about how you appreciate what they have offered but she prefers to eat x, y & z and fresh fruits, vegetables, meats & milk. They honestly may have no idea how live-ins work and just need to be communicated with. Instead of venting to you, she should talk with her bosses and address her needs. She is her only advocate.
