Content almost refused by staff

Today, I quit my job being a nanny to some truly psycho children. Their mother refused to believe I didn't want to watch her children anymore, even after showing her the multiple bite marks that required stitches. She than said that she would sue me if I asked for my last paycheck. FML

And now you know why they needed a nanny: those kids have probably already been kicked out of every local daycare. Their mother probably told all of those daycares that she would sue them too. I know she's just making an empty threat to try and scare you, but honestly- how was she planning to explain this in small claims court? "Judge, I demand compensation!" -"For what?" "For the money I did not pay to my nanny!" -"No...what?... no, you can only be compensated for things that are owed TO you, not owed BY you." "Then I demand compensation for being Slandered! This nanny said my children bit her!" -"Well, did they bite her?" "I don't see how that is relevant, Your Honor..."

In that case, threaten to sue HER for the medical costs AND the money due for your precious time. Don't forget to throw in a little extra for "emotional distress" to teach her a lesson!

She said she would sue if OP asked for her paycheck. That means she would sue if she paid OP so the last paycheck would be the demanded compensation.

OP should sue for medical costs regardless of whether her employer pays her.

.... human bites dont get stitches. too much bacteria.

coming from someone whom has had both a human and dog bite them: they most certainly do require stitches dependant on severity and location. the wound gets cleaned just like any other bite wound and you are placed on antibiotics.

Bite wounds can be debrided and stitched with no issues, we don't forgo stitches based on bacteria levels. It depends on the best applicable treatment for patient condition.

Gee, I wonder where her kids got it from. You should ask for your last check anyway, she can't legally force you to work for her.

She knows how ****** up they are and just doesn't want to deal with them.
