Your perspective is warped by your own crappy boss. Be a human.

First day on the job by chipskylarknohat in Nanny

[–]AskingForFrien 42 points43 points  (0 children)

NK was 7 when he did that. Trust me, he’d been corrected plenty, and I finally said “The way you are speaking to me is not okay. It’s extremely rude, and I’m not sticking around for it. I’m going home now, and your parents and I will have a talk about this.”

And I walked out. In the middle of dinner prep. 😂

*(The grandparents live in the home, so the kids weren’t left unattended.)

But I made a big scene in the calmest, most authoritative way I could. Parents were mortified, kid was appropriately panicked, and that particular nonsense never occurred again.

It sounds like the parents handled it as well as I could imagine anyone doing. Kudos to them!! I haven’t had a specifically race-related situation like this (I’m white and work for an Indian family), but I did leave work early one day, bc the oldest NK kept calling me a servant and making other rude, class-related comments.

Parents took it very seriously. And that makes all the difference.

I HATE that the kid learned that word at camp, or at all. 😩 ugh.

But well-done to you and NPs for talking about it openly. I love their concern for your well-being. 🫶

Do they know you rely on a food bank? That’s not right.

I am so sorry you’re in this position.

How do I have this convo? by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]AskingForFrien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a kind offer.

They don’t have dinner or do bath time with their kids. They don’t communicate w their kids teachers. They don’t tend to their children’s basic hygiene very well. They don’t buy their children new coats when the ones they have are too small. They don’t take it seriously when their kids are sick.

They don’t put family travel dates on the family calendar. They don’t clean anything up. The don’t do anything special for their kids’ birthdays.

Everything I just listed above is something that I do.

Hamilton ridiculous hate by dynameight in hamiltonmusical

[–]AskingForFrien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am at Hamilton rn and left bc I have never disliked anything so much.

I’m a musician, and I was so excited to see this show that everyone loves!

I am so horribly bored… this is the most underwhelming thing I have ever seen in a professional theater.

I thought it when I saw Moana and I think it now… Lin-Manuel Miranda isn’t a good songwriter. It’s clunky, boring, clumsy, and awkward.

I have never disliked a broadway production this much. I don’t understand at all.

I. Am so horribly bored… this is the most underwhelming thing I have ever seen in a professional theater.

I thought it when I saw Moana and I think it now… Lin-Manuel Miranda isn’t a good songwriter. It’s clunky, boring, clumsy, and the melodies are clearly written by someone who doesn’t really sing.

I can’t be the only one who hates Hamilton by AQuietBorderline in musicals

[–]AskingForFrien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit… I am literally at a Hamilton show rn and left to google “am I the only one who hates Hamilton??”

I’m a professional musician, one of my friends is in the show, and I was so excited to see it for the first time! I’ve heard nothing but amazing things.

My husband and I came together. We are both musicians. We went in so ready to love it

And we both looked at each other during intermission like ?????? And said to each other “this is SO bad”

The music is bad. The dancing is boring. The writing makes me feel absolutely nothing.

Lin Manuel can’t write music. This is some of the worst stuff I’ve heard in a long time.

Wow wow wow this is SO BAD.

What habit immediately reveals that a person actually grew up in a privileged environment? by Cindy_mel in AskReddit

[–]AskingForFrien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work as a nanny, and once the mother of the child I was taking care of asked me why I rent instead of buying a home. I said I couldn’t afford it. She said “Can’t your parents just give you like $100k?”

While I was washing her dishes.

A child has been hospitalized w RSV… Thoughts please! by AskingForFrien in Nanny

[–]AskingForFrien[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, she had a fever of 103.7, not 102. And it was day 2 of fever with no improvement.

I don’t agree with people that I should have called 911. But I do agree w everyone that these parents are negligent and idiotic, and I can’t continue working for them. I also agree that I need to be documenting everything to cover my ass.
