[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like your idea of timing is a good middle ground -- going from 13 hours to 9 -- if she is unhappy with the hours change, could you afford to bump her salary slightly so the drop in pay isn't as dramatic? [/quote] We did tell her in the beginning that the long hours would be temporary because the kids would shortly be in school full time. What I hadn't factored in was the fact that I would need her in the mornings. We've tried but its tough getting everyone fed, watered, looking vaguely presentable and out the door by 7:15. So to answer your question I probably will not increase her salary. [/quote] 20 hours a week is a huge drop. It's your decision, of course, but I'd be less than thrilled. As others have pointed out, it's not like she can get a second job. She can't even sleep in. [/quote]
