A few times at my last nanny position I posted ads looking for a new job, not because I wanted to leave, but because I was curious how many bites I'd get and what salaries I could get as my experience and education had changed. I'd even post in other cities to see what happened. I never took or even interviewed for another position - I was just curious. I imagine bosses might do the same thing on occasion.Texas Nannynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-88201937770321050812012-12-12T15:59:26.307-05:002012-12-12T15:59:26.307-05:00OP sorry for all the autocorrect!!

Also I dont have to prtend i know they were at the very least watching cams while away which I'm fine with. Wasn't my first rodeo lol. And no nothing on film that would be a rational reason to try to replace me with out addressing it. Didn't ask for a raise I has only been there three months. Trust me I've thought about all the questions myself and came up with nothing which is why I came here to see if maybe there was something I wasn't thinking about from a parents or nannies who have gone though this before perspective<br />Thank you for the well wishes!!<br /><br />Village and the rest...<br />It wasnt a copy cat it was infant her care.com profile and same exact ad salary and all except with ages updated. <br /> <br />Thank you guys though for the thoughts! It is moot but it left me disappointed and stumped because I've never had a MB who didnt like me. Oh well!

People usually end up flagging those, but like the PP's said, you never know. It could've been something simple and stupid as that, or maybe MB needed to get someone cheaper and was too embarrassed to tell you. Unfortunately, all of these are assumptions because you don't want to ask. But it's all moot now right? I wouldn't dwell on it, just be glad you have another job and it's working out well for you. :)old-timernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-8298481521225682482012-12-11T11:37:43.763-05:002012-12-11T11:37:43.763-05:00I was thinking the same thing Village said.

I am a lot more confrontational than you are so I asked MB if she was looking for another nanny and she was completely confused. Turns out someone had copied and pasted her ad. I always advocate asking if there is a problem, even though I know you didn't want to hear this. But it shouldn't matter anymore anyway, so good luck at your next job!MissMannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15111173519948500730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-52463963786244595082012-12-10T19:04:07.480-05:002012-12-10T19:04:07.480-05:00What village asked?

Did you call in sick often? Pretend they were secretly filming you over the course of your job....would they have seen anything on film that would have disturbed them? Also, have you recently asked for a raise? I could go on and on, but I think you get the point.<br /><br />Anyway OP, I am so glad that things ended up working themselves out for the best.<br />It obviously was not meant to be w/your previous family and I am glad you are happy now. ☺♥ Amy Darling ♥noreply@blogger.com
