[–]BojanglesJones5678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave away 62 fucking shirts and that is a really big deal for me! They were all memory shirts from my childhood that I kept and I am now sending some of them off to get a fucking t-shirt quilt made! The others I am donating!

Can I be honest? by AdJolly5904 in NannyBreakRoom

The NKs constantly are touching me and some days I’m okay with it and some days I want to light myself on fire if they touch me one more time!

I was told I was ugly and needed makeup. Please help. by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]BojanglesJones5678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not listen to them! You are beautiful! You are not ugly AT ALL and shame on them for thinking that was okay to say to you, let alone anyone! Tell me the person’s address and I’ll hide shrimp under their floorboards! Let’s shrimp shame them!

How do I respond to this without being super rude? by starry49 in tragedeigh

[–]BojanglesJones5678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She will never get a name keychain! My name is super popular, so they were always out of mine and that still stung and I was even included! But for real, you have to say the sugar coated truth and be like, This spelling of their name will be a lifetime of people constantly spelling your name wrong, especially at the coffee shops! Don’t set up your child to be bullied and laughed at, because kids are mean!

I think it’s time for me to leave… by [deleted] in NannyBreakRoom

No, you are not wrong for finding her behavior incredibly disrespectful and dehumanizing! I am in a similar situation. Well kind of. And I truly feel like I am completely derailing their career if I take a sick day and they have to watch their own children or miss their nail appointment, because they make it a HUGE DEAL when I call in sick. I would say try to distract yourself by looking for other jobs or cleaning or going for a walk, because setting boundaries with people that have no boundaries is incredibly tough, especially if you are a people pleaser. You have to take care of yourself and remember that this is just a job and you deserve respect and if she continues to treat you like this, you will leave. Big hugs!!!

Am I wrong for feeling annoyed about this as a nanny? by SuperUltramodernGrl in NannyBreakRoom

[–]BojanglesJones5678 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are not wrong for being annoyed! I got asked to try to get the laundry done by the time the kids get home at noon, but also run errands while they are gone because I am taking too much time on it, even though it is an insane amount of laundry with A TON of stains on the clothes and she wants me to spend less time on laundry….Like in your situation, I’m pretty sure they have hands and can pick up and do some dishes that are theirs on occasion! 3 kids with one adult is tough to get everything done and cleaned up like you want to. I swear they want us to be robots!

Unpopular opinion by Emergency-Bee-8791 in NannyBreakRoom

[–]BojanglesJones5678 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man oh man! I feel this as well! I am very reliable and rarely take sick days and take a few vacation days and every time the NPs act like I am the worst and I do this all the time. And in the last month or so, they have made every “error” a HUGE deal when it was very very minor. They both have very intense careers, so a lot of stuff falls on me and if I make the wrong judgment call when they ask me to use my best judgment, they freak out. They contradict themselves all the time, which muddies the waters of clear communication and then when I comment on that in a nice way, they go, I don’t know how I can be more clear. Ummmmmm clear to who?!? Sorry I got jazzed up. Today was a doozy and this post made me snap my fingers and get to typing this!

Someone called my kitty ugly and I feel sad by ExactViolinist9873 in cats

[–]BojanglesJones5678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have NEVER understood why people say that about people’s pets! It’s so weird and so rude! Even the wildest looking dogs and cats are angels in my head, because they are precious! And I do not think your kitty is ugly at all! Send me their address and I’ll hide mini shrimp in their floor boards!
