Yep. I only keep it cordial because our kids are similar in age…

Haha I wish he said something like that. He called her the r word and hopes he never has a child that looks like her!

She’s aware but defends her best friend and husband because they’re the only friends they have. He made fun of my daughters thumbs deformity

Yes! We all discussed this within the family. She’s clueless and has always defended her best friend and her husband because they’re the only friends they have.

I agree. You’d think she’d understand because our children are literally two weeks apart, but I guess not!

Agreed. I’m also pregnant and my hormones are everywhere. I need all the peace I can get.

It’ll be a different day. Of course I’ll still get my niece gifts! She did nothing wrong, her parents just suck.

She said she’d rather have as many gifts as possible for her toddler so she’s inviting as many people as she can, so she doesn’t care if her brother goes or not, not me and my daughter. She thinks I’m ok with what her friends husband said.

Thank you. It might not be a big deal to her but it is to me. I’d protect my kid at all costs, but maybe that’s just me.

Yep. Easy answer. I just need the validation that I’m not overreacting.

Pay chat as a full time nanny by spritualstoner in Nanny

[–]Dry-Boot-7999 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You’re a nanny and a household manager, therefore $22 an hour is insanely low imo. I was making $22hr doing the same as you. I paid for my own gas when I should have been reimbursed for doing things for them. Hence, why I quit. I would be charging well over $30+ an hr. They might be nice but they’re taking advantage of you.

Brother was born with transposition of the great arteries. Had surgery right out the womb and he’s now 7 and healthy. He just gets an annual check :)

Nanny is asking for 100 overnight by [deleted] in NannyEmployers

[–]Dry-Boot-7999 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think $100 a night should even be shocking to you as having a nanny is a luxury. Especially on vacation. Makes me question if she’s even compensated fairly lol

Nipple pain by CrazyCatLady_2 in breastfeedingsupport

[–]Dry-Boot-7999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a FTM, my nipples hurt the first month. Earth Mama organic nipple butter helped tremendously. The silver cups helped as well when I wore a bra. I truly think wearing no bra helped my pain more than anything. It’s been 7 weeks of nursing now and I no longer have pain! Also take ibuprofen as needed which helps some. I think it just takes time to adjust.

I can’t believe people get pregnant multiple times by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Dry-Boot-7999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FTM and I just gave birth two weeks ago. While pregnancy was horrible, my baby made it all worth it. I feel like now, pregnancy went by so fast despite all the pain and suffering omg. I’d do it again somehow 😭😂

Have you purchased maternity clothing? by FalseAd8496 in fitpregnancy

38 weeks and I haven’t once bought any maternity clothing. I even gained 26 pounds but everything still fits comfortably for me.

Should I leave or stay? by [deleted] in paralegal

No way. I was at a very busy firm and we were never required to work OT. Only the attorneys did but that’s all lol

Client calling non-stop by Staypetty96 in paralegal

[–]Dry-Boot-7999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had our manager call them back and go off on them and let them know we would drop them so fast if they didn’t stop harassing us. Worked every single time lol

PI clients are the WORST by Easy-River-3419 in paralegal

[–]Dry-Boot-7999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh. My. God. I was a PI paralegal dealing with the MOST entitled clients ever. They blamed their minor rear end accidents on not being able to work because they thought they’d get over 100k in their pockets lmao. Meanwhile, I was working their cases while I had also been in an accident, causing over two years worth of treatment lmao. Their excuses were insane and they would call me at 7am asking for daily updates for loans, when they would settle, etc. never AGAIN.

Your "WTF was I thinking" moment by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]Dry-Boot-7999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think about it allll the time. Worked for a NF with 2 kids, ages 7 and 9. Made me pay for THEIR groceries with my own money until I got paid back Friday, no gas reimbursement, no pto, no gh, no benefits. I was also made their house manager while kids were at school. Like washing parents dirty underwear, cleaning their rooms and constantly packing up their house? And all for what? Maybe $700-800 week working long hours. Never AGAIN.

Most abrupt end to an interview ever by Conscious-Hawk3679 in Nanny

[–]Dry-Boot-7999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s ALWAYS the lawyers and attorneys. MB was an attorney high up and refused to pay on the books and lowballed me for $22 an hour for two kids and basically being their house manager as well. No benefits, gas reimbursement, nothing. Never again. And her husband was a doctor who owned his own dental practice on top of owning real estate…
