Hello all,
As most of you know I'm a live-in nanny and this weekend I was sacked!
I had been having some problems at work for sometime and it was really getting me down, the main reason was my boss and her pathetic excuse for a boyfriend are the most anoying selfish people you could ever meet in your life!
So On sunday from my dads (as I go home on weekends) I sent an email asking if I could have an extra day off because I was still feeling really stressed, and I was thinking about quitting so i thought I better bring up a few problems im having and see if we could sort them out before I quit, so i mentioned that the kids needed talking to, that the mum didnt undermine me like she normally does..Example: One time they didnt eat their dinner so i said no pudding and she told them yes and that pudding wasnt a divine right and then when i went out she gave them iced biscuits in bed!!! Also that they start smoking outside because they started and i gave up and now they hardly ever smoked outside and the reason they started smoking outside wasbecause the kids had really bad smokers cough from it!! also that because my boss complains about everything, I asked if she's had a bad day at work to maybe talk about it in private rather than share it with me as I didnt want to hear it everyday especially when i'd had a bad day and she didnt care. also they constantly say hello to each other....Example: She'll be sitting on the couch and he'll be on the computer right next to her and when he comes off and sits down he will say "Hello" in a baby voice and she will say it back..or when they get in from work (they have just walked home with each other) he'll be hanging up his coat and when he comes in the room he says "hello" !! Always in a baby voice and all the time, sometimes they'll just be hugging and say it back and forth!
So I said they might not notice they said it so much and maybe they could limit it as it was kinda annoying!
All the time in this email saying I'm sorry,and tell me if it's not my place to say and stuff and then i got an email back saying.......
They've talked about it and think it's not viable i come back , and not to see the children again, not even to say goodbye and collect my stuff sometime this week!
I was in total shock, still am! I lived there for over two years all the time them telling me how i'm part of the family and then they just shut me out like this!
I've been crying on and off since!
I don't actually care that im not gonna work for them as I hate them but I cannot believe she's not gonna let me see the kids again! That is breaking my heart! I saw them more than she did!
I love those children so much!
Her excuse was it would upset them too much, but if you ask me for me to just go out of their lives after so long without an explanation or a goodbye would be hurting them far worse!
I'd like people's feelings towards this matter...
Was I out of line? Should I get to say bye to the kids? Do I deserve the kind of disrespect she is showing me?
I still can't believe this has happened!
