'Sometimes when you bluff you get called': Nanny walks out when family gets a new puppy because of her allergy, is upset they wont get rid of their new pet

Being allergic to dogs is a fate that I'm lucky I don't have. It would be hard to avoid some of the most perfect creatures on Earth. But most allergy-havers manage to deal with it. They take medication, they avoid inhaling too much dander, and they go on their merry way. But this requires a lot of effort. This requires time and money and a willingness to feel a little bit bad. So it's also understandable that they would want to avoid the situation completely.

But what if it's at the cost of a new job? It's hard enough to get a job as it is; you would hate to have to turn it down because of something neither of you can control. But that comes at a great personal cost to you. That's the situation this worker was in when she took a new job despite her allergy, but figured the problem would go away soon enough. But when it didn't, she had a plan to manipulate the situation to her advantage. At least she thought she did.

Her plan, though, backfired, and left her without a job. But her (no former) employer was left wondering whether or not they made the right call. They can't just get rid of a dog they just adopted, right? Read on to see what happened in this story and decide who you think was in the right.

AITAH for getting a dog when our nanny is allergic, not getting that she was bluffing when she said she wouldn't come back and that she wasn't quitting?
