au pair
Posted by dulwichmum on Fri 8 May 2009
Once again I am in the market for a new au pair. I am incredibly easy to get along with, once they learn to see it my way (stamps foot). I have spent some time reflecting on where I go wrong, and this time I have recorded every every single word (sniff). I am a lovely employer, but this girl only lasted three weeks (sob)…
“I like you, you remind me of myself when I was young and stupid.”
“The fact that no-one understands you, is not explained away by the fact that you are foreign.”
“Don’t believe everything you think.”
“I’ll try being nicer if you try to be more intelligent.”
“What am I? Flypaper for freaks?”
“Who lit the fuse on your tampon?”
I thought all of these things, wrote them down, and said none of them… Not one.
Yes, she was rather pretty, and yes I insisted that she wear a surgical mask in my home – but this is Dulwich and we are in the midst of Flu epidemic for Gods sakes (smirk). Have you any idea how rich and powerful my sweet husband is?
If she has been in any way indiscreet, and you are now talking about me at the school gates – you would do well to be very aware that I know where your skeletons are buried. YOUR AU PAIR HAS A MOUTH - AND ARDIANA TOLD ME WHAT SHE WAS SAYING ABOUT YOU TOO!
Send in the next candidtate… (puts on glasses)

I’m tempted to apply myself ……. is it necessary to actually like children?
dulwichmum said,
OHMYGOD but of course it is daddy – someone has to like them…
Annabel said,
Do you think she found the piece of paper you wrote them down on?
That’d do it for me!
Good luck with the search…

I think you should try saying it out loud next time. I mean if it’s that bad far better that she leaves after a week rather than drag it out my dear! t.x

You really should do something about your leave-a-comment facility DM. One either underdoes it or overdoes it.

I could pretend to be foreign if that helps me get the job lol

Now be honest – why did she only last three weeks?
grit said,
have you found the one yet who claims she is a practising nudist but reassures her prospective employers it doesn’t get in the way of the vacuuming?
Sophie said,
Have you thought about looking after your own children? Would cut out the whole HR hassle.
