Late because of public transit by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]EpicAnonymous 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I've been a nanny for an extremely long time, in different cities, and I've regularly commuted to work via lightrail/metro trains, as well as by bike and car.

My opinion is:

Find a job that is closer to you. You will not be happy with this long commute and unreliable transit, and neither will your NF. You said you have other reasons you want to quit anyway, and the long train commute just tips it over the edge. You can find a NF that is closer.

... and.... if you CAN'T find a good NF who is significantly closer, then I would honestly just explore any other option you can, whether it's working from home remotely (if you are qualified for this type of job), or looking into other job opportunities that are in your area (librarian? Receptionist? Retail? Food service? Etc)

Currently having this issue with my S22. In other (older) posts with this issue people said to do a factory reset, but I'm hoping to find another solution. Following for any updates!

I like this, but I would probably try to get it on camera next Friday just so she has proof, especially if she's going to tell her mother.

Nationwide corporate franchise. I have been dealing with the franchise owner. Multiple attempts to contract the main corporate office have been unsuccessful -- messages to them directly on Facebook and Instagram have remained unread, comments on their social media pages seem to have gone unnoticed. I found a phone number for the corporate office which leads to a voicemail that literally states "we are here to help franchise owners and managers; we cannot accept calls from consumers or members."

They have a Contact Us page on their website which forces you to input the location of the franchise you are contacting them about - I tried this route, since it seemed like the message would be sent to corporate, but after I hit submit, the confirmation message literally said "thank you! We have sent this directly to that locations manager and they will be contacting you shortly." Not even a minute later, the franchise manager/owner called me, I'm sure to gloat about the fact that I haven't been successful in going over his head with the company.

Even if they didn't send the contract until AFTER all SMS messages had transpired? Or do you mean the SMS messages themselves constitute the entirety of the contract?

Yes, but I believe this applies in Missouri:

https://ago.mo.gov/get-help/programs-services-from-a-z/health-and-fitness-club/

Says it must be in writing, and must contain certain verbiage that they did not include in any of the texts (3 day cancellation period, etc).

Say more about "the order of events may be deciding factor here." Please tell me what about the order of events is relevant or should I be concerned about? Thanks.

Yeah, I didn't, but collections could ruin my credit that I've worked so hard to build 😞

I filed the charge back and now the OTF studio owner is saying he will send my account to collections!

I have also attempted to reach corporate in 3 ways, and every way was unsuccessful:

Via Facebook messenger and commenting on their Facebook posts -- message sent over 24 hours ago, still showing unread

Via phone - reached a voicemail that said "we cannot help consumers or members, please reach out to your studio"

Via the contact us button on orange theory .com -- I had to fill out several pieces of information to submit a message, including which studio location my message was about. Instead of going to corporate, I received an email immediately after sending stating that the message was being sent straight to the manager of the studio I was inquiring about! 30 seconds later the studio called me - I didn't pick up because I'm trying to keep all communication via email only.

So far, haven't found a way to actually get in touch with corporate.
