nanny has been with us since sep 06, looking after dd1. she has been brilliant and has repeatedly said that looking after dd1 is a pleasure not a chore. dd1 has blossomed in her care. for my part, i think i have been quite good too, not only paying handsomely (incl tax and ni, and funding extra training), but being easy and not giving a hard time when she did things i disagreed with. just had dd2 and i let her know months ago i would be employing her full time till end of july and again from beg january, but only need and can afford part time sept-december. she seemed happy with this arrangement and asked me to help finding another family to do the extra hours, which i have gone out of my way to do.
today after much prodding and proofing she admitted she has started looking for a full time job from sept, she did give me some hazy motivations (around the fact that she doesnt want to work for someone for only a few months) but frankly I DON"T CARE, i am just so pi**ed off that she didn't think of telling me (thereby pot leaving me in a difficult situation) and had to wait till i asked her outright, and a bit hurt that she seems to think so little of us, of my dd who she claims to love and of her job here that it's not worth the temporary inconvenience of having to work for someone else for a few months.
i am really mad...
