I felt sorry for my sister, she was hired was offered to work as a private nurse of a very old patient.. Since she needed a partner to relieve her on another 12hour, she asked one of acquaintance to work with her in that family.. The wife of the patient like he partner so much because sheis giving extra service aside from doing caregiver job. My sister performed the duty of private murse caregiver job only. but the son of the patient who hired them like my sister so much.. but wht her partner did was so upsetting. She won the trust of the patient's wife and was able to motivate the patient's wife to terminate my sister... She told her a lot of lies and blale mistake tht was not mu sister's fault.meeed he for every single mistake that was not my sister's fault. A family friend told us that she didn't even pass her caregiver course. I just pity the family where she work right now knowing the patient's life might be in danger..My sister wad not regretful that she lost th job it was just a very ba experuence for her that somebody trusted and taught how to do caregiver job stab her in her back, that was so upsetting.. Just want to share my sister's experience.

That is terrible. I can't believe that someone that your sister knows would turn on her like that. You can never trust anyone. You think they are nice but they turn around and stab you in the back. I feel so bad for your sister and I know myself if this happened to me I would be sending a letter to the family telling them the truth. Just to clear her name. These people can give your sister a bad name and that will travel.

That is hard. Your sister must talk to her partner so that both of them understand each other. Maybe her partner have just misunderstood the whole situation or she did it on purpose? Its difficult to judge and we really can't read the partner's mind or maybe her partner has this hatred desire to her sister. Oh well, hmmmm... that is what I know to resolve the issue. Good communication is good. Maybe everything will set things right.

Hi Mayrah, that is part of life. I think your sister is really too trusting and naive. Hopefully after this lesson she will learn to trust only those who can be trusted. It takes painful lessons like this to know the true color of another person. Generally I do not like those who always praise you for wearing the right clothing or whatever, because these people do not have sinerity. They are good at sweet talk only. I think your sister really have to grow up and learn to read people accurately. Better that she sees through her false friend now than later. Her false friend will have bad karma.

Why should anyone be nice to someone who is stabbing you in the back? What is the purpose with that? I think if someone stabs your back you should make clear to that person you do not accept such behaviour.

Sometimes being nice, even too nice is the best way to show that we don't care about them. Maybe some offhanded, not really direct snarky remarks are nice, too. It was actually a good lesson for her, as well. That not everyone should be trusted 100%.

Well i can understand the situation your sister might have gone through but then she needs to stay strong and firm and tell her not to develop any hostile or negative thoughts about them. This is life and we have to deal with different kinds of people, at times people would be lovely with us and at times they would bog us down. So we have to be strong enough and not to be in any revenge mood.

I did not experience like that but once my classmate they put a needle for another classmate and when she sit on her chair I think was so painful for her.... I do not like such of thing but she just smiled back to others.... and maybe they could feel shame of what they did. thanks I did not experience, because I can not stand pain at all.
