[quote=Anonymous]You must demand to be paid your guaranteed hours.  I don't have a contract but I assumed this was something my new employers understood when they set my hours - new parents can be clueless.  They use their old babysitting model from when they were teenagers.  Educated them and demand payment.  I did and they seem to have greater respect for me.

I will assume that you are NEVER (and I mean not once) late for work.  You won't have a leg to stand on otherwise on this issue.  Be packed and ready to go the second MB/DB comes home and tell them that you have missed your class, tutoring session, doctor's appointment, picking your invalid grandmother up at the airport, and tell them directly that this cannot happen again.  Do not be nice - don't be bitchy but do not say it is all right.  I am never late and my employers were late a few times early on -- I let them know it was not okay.  They are never late now.

As soon as you hear DB come home, be packed and ready to leave.  Hand him the baby.  Don't wait for him to come upstairs.  Again, once when I was first starting with my current new parent family, I had to walk into the kitchen when they had company over and ask who wanted to take the baby.

Teach people how you want to be treated.  [/quote]
