You could always tell her that once she stays 3 weeks she is upgraded to friend accomodations and tell her this cartoon sums it up nicely.
Threadjacking (ok- is it possible to jack this thread?) to ask: nomdeplume, are you from Hawaii? It's been a while since I've heard anyone speak Pidgin English, I almost got a little homesick. :)

OK, I just got back from a very long day... And what's the first thing I do? Check this thread! It's an addiction, I tell ya!
I cannot BELIEVE The Nanny Named Tang ordered a t-bone. Ridiculous.
And she probably ruined the family computer, to boot. (Or not "to boot," if the virus is a really bad one... Ugh. Bad pun.)
Anyway, I really, really, REALLY hope she leaves on Monday. If not, I maybe reading this thread for months to come!
Wow.
Did she eat the entire steak? Or just leave the other 20 bites on the plate, to be thrown away?
Why do I ask?

i wonder what kind of sensitive personal info she's had access to on that computer (i know you said she's not smart but maybe her credit theiving & eye-punching boyfriend is)
OH MY GOD!
I just got a call from the woman who has hired Georgia. (of course, Georgia is still asleep) And there IS a job. And she now wants her to start in the morning if she can. And this woman has NO idea what she is getting. And I think Georgia is in over her head. She has three children. I don't think Georgia can handle it.
The woman asked me what I thought of her. I told her that I had never worked with her, so I really couldn't say. What could I say?? I want her out. Now I feel guilty. Oh well. She is leaving. (happy bastard dance) It really wasn't my place to tell her that this girl has absolutely no maternal instinct, was it? Gah.

In the world of human resources, one doesn't dare say anything, negative or positive, when asked about a person's employment record with a certain company. One merely confirms whether a person worked for a company. In today's litigious society, anything beyond that is potentially libelous, so no, Jersey, it's not wrong. It's CYA.
*crosses fingers*
If she's not gone in the morning, I'm tracing your IP address, coming to your house, and pulling the bitch out the window by her stringy Soviet hair.
Then I'm buying you a porterhouse.

Why didn't you say "You are absolutely not ordering a t-bone and charging it to her card. Get something less expensive." Bitch KNEW what a freaking steak was!
GAHHHH! How long 'til we all require blood pressure medication?
ETA: Jersey, if that's true, re: the job, make sure your employers change all of the locks the second Tang is out of the house.

Jaily, you gave me my first laugh of the day!
JG2, I was going to suggest sly SBD's in close proximity if she hung around much longer...
Forget changing the locks. I'd move.
Apparently she is getting on the train at 6.
The new employer is a Ralph Lauren model. She had a photo shoot in the Hamptons this week. That's the reason she wasn't able to "train" Georgia this week. She wants to start her tomorrow so the kids can be used to her by Monday.
Wooooot.

the odds are on... still
But I cross fingers though that you get her off your sight.
JG2....I hope you're not being punk'd.
It has rounded up all of its stuff. It has showered and called everyone it could POSSIBLY know. Things are looking good.
And it asked me to take it to the train, which leaves at 7:15.
And the new boss just called and she is stuck in traffic. It is leaving later.
... but of course.
Is there going to be a sequel?
There should be a trilogy.
Can I write the book?
It's a lovely day tomorrow!
Tomorrow is a lovely day!
Come and feast your tear dimmed eyes,
On tomorrow's clear blue skies!
If today your heart is weary,
If ev'ry little thing looks gray,
Just forget your troubles and learn to say,
Tomorrow is a lovely day!
"Can I write the book?"
Only if you use past-tense prose, FW.
