Sooo my nanny fell asleep holding the baby. My husband and I work from home. So, he walked in, saw them and put the baby in the crib.
Ask: Any advice on how to address this with the nanny? Also, it it a fire able offense?

Context: Nanny started full time on 1/24; baby is not quite 5 months old; we are WFH and have cameras installed that are visible (she should know they exist); first time having a nanny

1st acknowledging this scenario is less than desired.

Nannies should be treated like family. So they treat your child like family.

I don’t see what the “fire-able” offense is here. I don’t know any parent who hasn’t fallen asleep holding their baby.

No need then to ask for validation. Good luck.

Have you fallen asleep with your baby yet ?

Good work on the no bed sharing . Sorry about your cousins child. I see how that might affect your thinking on this. That said fallen asleep with your baby in yours arms is pretty common. I do find it weird if a nanny did so but expected for every one else . Probably a good bonding moment for you and baby and your spouse who finds you sleeping with the baby :)

I keep seeing new GD reviews about the company moving away from the hybrid work model and mandating RTO. Can any current employees explain what’s going on? I’m starting next month as a FT Director based in TX. Curious what the current remote (or lack of remote) climate is like and how employees are feeling about it.

How much do you normally on average net when you sell a home? Looking to upgrade due to second kid on the way and I’m curious how much goes to fees, brokers, agents, etc. My current home is worth 325k per Zillow and my mortgage balance is 165k, so about 160k of equity. So if I sold it for what it’s worth at 325k, how much could I expect to net for my next home’s down payment? I see different answers online so anyone with experience would be great. Thanks.

At my org,full of politics and Partiality,still these kind species are there in org,when all the team members are working from home, specially they call one to work when all your colleagues are in wfh.,Dont want to have job gaps so bearing all these shits..Job pressures#work culture is an shit@Fincare small Finance Bank

I have been working remotely since covid getting nothing but positive reviews. My company is not remote friendly and is now telling me I have to return to the office or I lose my job. I just found out a co-worker had a remote position created for them, without a job posting, without an interview and without the experience required (normally a license or certification would be mandatory). I understand life isn’t fair but is there an ethical problem with this?

While most teachers are protected by teacher unions, I feel my voice hasn’t been heard at all with my concerns of going back to school next week. Our diocese has decided on full return 5 days/ week for all 42 schools despite a recent increase in COVID in our communities. Every other school that I know of in my state is either choosing remote learning to start the year or a hybrid approach, yet that was not an option for us. Are other Catholic schools I. The same boat? Stay safe!
