MN Mom, no offense intended here, but your DH is wrong. Does he WANT you to get taken advantage of? I'd think he'd be on your side rather than a coworker's, but that's JMO.

Not having any sort of agreement is just like saying "that's ok, you can do whatever you want, pay whatever you want, and expect me to be at your beck and call 24/7". Would he like a job like that? Even if you're just doing a "favor" for a friend or neighbor, a contract protects both parties.

If he's against a really formal handbook, contract, etc...you can always type up a simple agreement that states days, hours, fees, sick policy, and termination policy. Those are the very bare necessities.

ETA: I'm really sorry that you're going through this stress. We're here for you!
