Lesson Learned
So, I started about 4 months ago. Mom#1 is great, single mom, her schedule is 8-5 3 days and 12-9 2 days. She referred me a coworker who supposedly had same schedule. She said they would work together to get the days the same. After the first week, mom#2 started just dropping off at 7 every morning. Now, dad who is seperated picks up sometimes so I didn't have #2 at night until this week. She popped those 2 days on me at the last minute. So 4 days of 7 am to 9:30pm! I woke up last night with really high blood pressure. My own kids are tired. This morning I told mom#1 I was putting an end to the alternate days if they can't be on the same schedule. She informed me that mom#2 doesn't come in until 12!!!!! She has been dropping her off at 7 and going in at 12. I"m the sucker. That ends today. She's dropping off at 10. Wish me luck. I'll let you know how busted mom#2 goes! :mad:

I agree, contracted hours from now on. If her schedule is different each week, I would tell her I need her schedule as far in advance as she receives it. And maybe you could also add that anything over 10 or 11 hours is overtime pay just in case she does it again. |
So the mom came in and I told her she had to get her schedule together with mom#1 as planned. I wasn't watching both that long but overlapping was killing me. Esp when the mom was doing whatever, getting her hair done, etc. I wish I had 5 free hours a day, lol I can't imagine dropping my child off and going alone for 5 hours a day. Anyway, she turned white, busted! She said I'm sorry about 15 times and left. I told her in plain words never again. Work it out. Feels good. Must I learn the hard way? BTW what are contracted hours?? Do tell. :rolleyes:
