Help wanted ad for a nanny - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I am really not sure what I think here... I think she thinks too much of herself.. and sounds like she should have had less kids.. sounds like she has not control.. but wants to control someone else that could do better at controlling her kids and getting them in order..
she sounds like she is giving lots for a place to sleep.. sounds like she would want more and more and more out of the right person.. if there really is a right person..
Not a mention of her hubby, and ya I think she needs to come down off her high horse some..
Then I think is this really for real... who would really make an add like this.. sounds like she has more money (to pay for large add) then brains..
And she is no writer what so ever...

LMAO

I saw this yesterday in the NYT and some young girl actually took the job. They also contacted a former nanny and had her read the ad and she said it was exactly how her former employer was to the letter

LOL that was hysterical! I thought it was really funny.

Really honest, too. Not trying to hide anything.

I am a professional nanny. No way in hell would I work for this woman lol. I heard she hired someone. I wonder if she has 'people'. For a craigslist ad, and how many crazy craigslist ads are out there, it's strange how this ad is getting so much attention by the national media.
