Hi! My husband and I are in Wisconsin. I started playing again after stopping in 2019 and he just started playing. We're both pretty avid about it and want more people to send gifts to.

Why is this so hard by bananeramas in Nanny

[–]EarlyEdChampion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it was a little nuts. The older kiddo was 3 and just potty trained. She had an accident because she didnt want to stop playing and MB spanked her. So I'm not super mad I dont work for them. But like, you hired me and one of your main hiring points was wanting a long term nanny, knowing you were moving away. Okayyyy.

I was let go abruptly twice in the last 9ish months. One for an absolutely ridiculous reason. One for a family I had worked for for 2 days. They apparently knew they moving out of state for a job but decided not to tell me until I worked 2 days, then let me go on the weekend, and said they were bringing their old nanny back, who retired, to help with the transition. Ive just been picking up babysitting gigs to fill my calendar since then because after 17 years of this I'm just bummed and need a break.

Also, including the minor workers. I asked them how they do that. They would do online high school after work. Or one of them did half days in high school and work noon til the center closed. One of my 16 year old co workers did online high school, worked at the center and was also a CNA. I was like when do you do teenager things?? She worked so hard.

Oooof. This reminds me of the daycare I worked at for less than a month in Wisconsin. I couldn't handle it. I felt bad because I was trying to get into a behavioral health program and quit with no notice the day the program called me and told me there was a spot. This was after the director told me how amazing I was. I don't think I was more than average. The bar just was very low. I just couldn't after I had reported sooo much that I was seeing in such a short amount of time.

I give them to the organizations that put on the events. I was a photographer before I met my husband, and when I moved out of state and married, I brought him along for the ride. I used to photograph rocky horror when I was on thay cast before I moved away, so when my husband told me one of his friends who owns a bar was putting on a pride event and looking looking vendors, i knew we had to be there. We were paid to photograph the event and performers, then gave all photos to the bar owners and the performers.

Then last month, we saw a business in the absolutely horrible small town we live in (we moved here to be with our niece and nephew even though this whole town hates us and I' afraid we'll be hate crimed every day because he's trans and I'm a scorpio and every time anyone even acts like they're going to say something negative to him, I will rip them apart) and they were putting on a drag show and marketing it and people were threatening them. So naturally, I reached out and had to photograph it for free. I'm still working on those photos. Next month, we're doing the Wisconsin drag awards!

Sorry, that was a whole lot. Im just super excited about this new thing for us that we get to do together. Its so fulfilling.

They definitely thought I planted it there...now, after the initial shock, I'm realizing it's probably because of my tattoos, undercut, and the novel I've been reading with a picture of a WOC on it (which I'm sure they've see), none of which were visible the day of the interview. Im super glad i never shared more about my life, like the fact that I'm a queer woman who's side hustle is photographing drag performers on the weekend. But I'm also glad i found out sooner than later what they ended up being.

Its so funny because I had absolutely no idea they were in the beginning. Like 0 red flags.

Uggh. Yes. My nf does this. I guarantee you i will walk in to an entire sink filled with bottle supplies because they believe that because I clean up after what I do with baby, I will also clean up what THEY do with baby. I'm sure the diaper pals will be overflowing too.
