[quote=Anonymous]It is kind of frustrating. We don’t live in DC but when we first hired our nanny, she was rock solid reliable and we only paid her for hours worked. She was very motivated to work, and even stepped up wanting to work overtime on the weekends frequently. After her first year, we adopted the norms on this board of paying her for time off. Over time, as she realized that we’d still pay her if she didn’t come to work for various reasons, I sure noticed her getting “sick” a lot more frequently or being “concerned” about driving in the snow. She’s still reliable for the most part, but manages to figure out how to get a lot more paid time off and is never interested in overtime anymore. She was much more reliable and motivated when we only paid for hours worked vs. When we moved her onto a salary type of arrangement. [/quote]
