[quote=casfolk]The job was presented as live-in or live-out (they've hired both in the past). I accepted the position as a live-in to save rent $$ for a year. They are paying me on the books, but a flat weekly salary. Well, technically an hourly rate + OT with guaranteed hours. The 65 hours would be much more doable for me if I were able to really leave work at the end of the day, but that isn't a possibility as a live-in. I may propose to restructure the compensation package at an hourly rate for 45-50 hours a week, and help them find and train an afternoon/evening nanny. It might be a pay cut for me, but it would still be live able and I would have my space. And hopefully the ability to cultivate a social life. :/ I try to foster longevity in my positions, and don't like leaving any sooner than two years when at all possible. [/quote]
