[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know what the correct protocol is, some parents don't take it very well when you ask them to be home by a certain time. With one family ( note, they were not respectful of me at all) I had to work ( for them, not for another job) the next morning at 10am, so I asked that they be home no later than 1, so I could get at least 6-7 hours of sleep. They agreed, but later brought it up when they were airing their many grievances, they accused me of giving them a 'curfew '! Even though that was the ONLY time I asked that they be home at a certain time, most date nights they would be out until about 3! Some people are just ridiculous. [/quote] Did you ask them when you accepted the job? I think it's fine to say "I'm afraid I'm only available to X time that day. If you still want me, I'd love to do it!" I think it's not cool to arrive on the day and say "By the way I need to leave at . . . " [/quote]
