[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hah. Temporary furlough? Your cutting expenses because you're down to 40% of your income. Do you honestly believe she will sit around and wait for you to need her again, with her income cut to 0% ? If you "furlough" her, expect her to file unemployment and raise your rates, and you should be prepared with a childcare option for when you are suddenly needed back at work and have no nanny.

She can feel free to file for unemployment but why would she raise rates? We are all in this together. I have no problems cutting her and using daycare as needed but it's not easy for a nanny to get a job especially right now.[/quote]

Not her raising her rates, if she collects unemployment it will raise YOUR unemployment insurance rates. If you're all in it together, how about sharing the hurt instead of putting it all on her? Maybe cut her hours to something you can afford, help her find extra hours, give her a freaking heads up. I promise you that loss of income hurts her much more than it hurts you. In the end you may have to cut some luxuries, she may have trouble feeding herself. [/quote]
