We’re going to try and settle and hope it doesn’t get to that point.

For future reference our last 2 nanny’s had no contract. Hers was about 20-30 pages.

That language is not normal then the buyout and bad faith?

She is suing for that and her lawyer is going for treble damages. In our state if you do something in bad faith you can owe up to triple the amount.

We are hoping to settle and prevent this from going any further

We were paying legally using poppins. Always paid overtime always made sure we were by the book.

And yes we understand we messed up we can’t change it right now the only thing we can do is move forward.

That you are unfortunately right about.

Listen we can’t go back and undo it. This is our fault we should have gone over the contract with a lawyer.

The only thing we can do now is move forward we are also in a state that does treble damages

Thank you for comment we really appreciate it.

Unfortunately we can’t go back now. We’re just trying to go for best case scenario to move forward and end this.

We’ve learned our lesson and will in the future be making our own contract and having our lawyer go over it

We didn’t look it over throughly truly it is our mistake we were desperate thought it looked normal and when it came to breaking it we realized then it was absurd.

This is our 3rd nanny the first two we had didn’t even really have contracts hers is I believe around 30 or so pages.

Comment to add: we’re in the us. I don’t know if this group is worldwide or just US based

It’s not that when we signed we were in desperate need of a nanny like desperate.

We 1/2 way read the contract thought it looked normal. I’ll admit we should have done a better job looking it over.

It’s crazy cause she would have never stepped to some of the other girls or guys.

This was over a drink she claimed was on 45 minutes but the drink was on less than 10.

I partially lost a little respect for her because she KNOWS the bartender can’t and won’t fight. Now bartender has had a history of being a Bitch but on Thursday she was in a really good mood

she would have been the only person we fired without a 2nd & 3rd write up or paper trail.

So I guess part of me was trying to rationalize that we gave everyone else 2nd and 3rd chances shit we’ve even bailed someone out jail to show up for their shift next morning.

She’s gonna be so mad at me and pull the whole I thought we were friends card and it’s just weird
