[quote=Anonymous]OP handle this carefully because you will be setting a precedent. Do not agree to anything that will make you bitter and uncomfortable if it continues in the future. I like what a PP suggested in saying that you are happy to help out this week, while stating what your expectations will be going forward. That at least sends the message that you are willing to work with them, but have your boundaries. When I negotiate guaranteed hours I make clear that while it is about guaranteeing my paycheck, it is also about respecting my availability and the schedule we have agreed to. I strongly believe that what they do with their time is their business, but I should not have to rearrange my life around theirs (on a regular basis). I'm not interested in giving up my weekends and evenings for free because my employers chooses to take a bunch of time off. Lets all be grownups and deal with the consequences of our own choices![/quote]
