I got fired as a nanny bc the mom's kids asked her to call me to read and sing them to sleep at night. I know how you feel, OP. Jealous asshats like that are the absolute worst and they always spin it to make us look bad on a reference.

Yuck! Why would she be polyamorous around her kids? Also, I hate when creepy guys hit on me. Sorry that happened to you but I hope you find a healthier work environment.

sharing is caring

Again, like a similar FML I read (above this one), if a boyfriend seeks another girl or finds her attractive or whatever, the girlfriend typically goes after the woman and not the boyfriend. The boyfriend is the one you need to be mad at, not the woman, especially if she did NOTHING wrong. I don't get girls' logic, although I am one myself lol.

damn. that sucks. not your fault but at least you know it was a rather stupid invalid reason... most people might not say why

That stinks! She is insecure so you have to lose your job? Well I hope the next person who hires you isn't some insecure jerk.

This is pure madness. First of all, why is she taking it out on YOU? Secondly, I'm all for polyamory and such, but how do the mother's "several" boyfriends look each other in the face knowing they all have their beefsticks wrapped in the same tortilla? Thirdly, why in front of the damn kids? I feel like the kids are really getting the short end of the deal here, even more so than you (in the long run, of course). Gawd.

To get the job back: Fake being lesbian. Create a fake lesbian girlfriend. Maybe a false story that you got messed with as a child and never want to see another adult penis again. Dicey ethics, but it's a means to an end...

The question is, did the boyfriends know about each other?

I definitely wouldn't use her as a reference if/when you're applying for another nanny job. She sounds like the type of person who would tell a potential employer not to hire you and make up bullshit reasons.
