I'm so glad I fired my nanny over the phone! She went banana and kept arguing back. She demanded I pay her 2 weeks severance even thought she only worked for me less than 2 months! [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I was struggling before deciding on not doing this face-to-face. I cannot imagine how my 1yr ds will react when he witness mommy and nanny yelling at each other! [ Reply | More

Two weeks is not standard. corporate America don't give severance unless you work for 1 full year and is let go NOT due to poor performance. How would nanny get much better terms than me, who works for corporate America? [ Reply | More

Whatever, but when you tell someone who was depending on you to LIVE that you are firing them without notice expect them to lose it. She won't eat next week, but why you should you care? WHO IS ENTITLED, Ms. Park Slope? [ Reply | More

And my family's livelihood also depends on my employer too but I won't get 2 weeks severance if they decide to fire me tomorrow, will I? 2 weeks severance is a lot of money to me too. Don't forget I also work to make a living. Maybe you don't. [ Reply | More

If you can't afford help don't hire help. I am sick and tired of these demanding cheap ass parents who want supernanny to do every thing while they moan and groan over the fact that they have to pay over $10 p/h. Sorry that slaves aren't available anymore, but when you hire someone you are in some way responsible for them. [ Reply | More
