[quote=Anonymous]Agreeing with the other posters. You need to be able to say no. You also need to not always be available. Practice things like: Oh - I'm so sorry but I have plans and won't be able to stay. I am finding it difficult to have such a variable schedule - especially when working two jobs and trying to have a life. I won't be able to be as flexible in the future - I can definitely accommodate almost anything you give me a week's notice for, but for personal reasons I can't be spontaneously giving up evenings or staying extra hours. ETc... She is taking unfair advantage, but you are allowing it to happen. Good luck.[/quote]
