[quote=Anonymous]I've been a nanny for a now 14 month old for a year now making $18 an hour and working 36 hours a week/4 days a week. My employers are not wealthy people by any means and the only reason they limit my hours to 36 is due to the cost. I absolutely merit an annual increase but think that a regular schedule might be better for my charge. He is happy on the days I leave at 5PM but cries when I leave at 3:30. Is it nuts to request more hours (4 more) at the same pay rather than a raise? It would be twice as much money for me ($72 more a week as compared to $36). I also don't want to get into a negotiation on adding just two more hours rather than a raise. I think that would be unfair to me and wouldn't serve the purpose of making my charge's schedule consistent. [/quote]
