[quote=Anonymous]Please help me decide

Job 1: 1 child (6)
-25 hours/week (5 afternoons)
-$500 gross ($20/hour)
-Paid vacation and holidays only if the parents can accommodate getting the time off (red flag since they won't commit outright to PTO.  It seems that this could easily turn into them saying they can't get the time off any time I schedule a vacation)
-guaranteed pay
-can bring my son if I'm ever in a bind for childcare.

Job 2: 3 kids (5,5,7)
-30 hours/week (5 afternoons)
-$600 gross ($20/hour)
-2 weeks paid vacation (1 my choice, 1 theirs) and whatever paid holidays the parents get.
-Guaranteed pay is being negotiated but it doesn't seem likely.
-can never bring my son.

Job 3: 1-2 kids (1 year old mostly 7 year old in the afternoon)
-33 hours/week (3 consequent ice 11 hour days)
-$495/gross ($15/hour)
-offering a "generous amount of vacation, more than most". But won't say how much (red flag?). Same paid holidays as parents.
-guaranteed pay is being negotiated and likely.
-can never bring my son.
-will have both kids on school vacations and summers for no extra pay.  (Weekly salary is non negotiable)

Go!
