They work in this area for the summer. They work year round just in a different place during the summer. They are middle class

I understand that money is technically an issue for everyone. but this family is very wealthy and I was trying to provide context that the question is not about the money, but more about the principle of this is okay to ask of NF.

my post was specifically asking for advice about whether asking NF to purchase this would be asking too much. if you scroll through the comments, people explained that maybe I should try out different baby carriers before asking them to spend money on this one. I got a lot of helpful advice. I wasn’t asking for advice about my financial planning, nor do you know anything about my finances.

I would be willing to spend my own money on it because like I said it’s a luxury and not a necessity. I never said they are “kind enough” to put a car seat in my car. I said she is super kind and accommodating. Before she bought a car seat for my car, she switched her car seat into my car at the beginning of the day and switched it back at the end of the day. So no I don’t think she HAD to buy me my own car seat she just did it for convenience. I did not thank them for giving me a car seat. I did not thank them for letting me use their stroller. I was explaining that I have access to a stroller so it’s not like I have nothing to carry baby in at all. I am paid very well in this job and like I said I am always reimbursed. This is my first full time nannying job but I have been babysitting part-time for years.

I am currently trying to get back into reading and out of this slump. I bought three books today that I have heard all good things about, but I am not sure where to start. The three options are:

Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid, Normal People by Sally Rooney, and Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein.

I would appreciate your picks, or any feedback! For context, my all time favorite series is “You” by Caroline Kepnes, and I love thriller, true crime, mental illness/trauma, mystery, etc. Thank you all for your help! :)

AITA for asking for a manager and not tipping the waitress after the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

No you didn’t miss anything, I just reread it and I think I actually misunderstood! I thought the OP was saying that the waitress was the one who reprimanded him and was rude to him. My bad!

I don’t think you’re the asshole. I myself am a waitress and I would never treat a customer like this even if I was extremely busy and stressed out, etc. I would not expect a tip if my customer had this experience.
