[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I interviewed for a weekend babysitting job today for 3 children under 5 y/old for 15 an hour. During the interview the mom asked if I would be interested in nannying one of her children One morning a week for 10 dollars an hour on top of the occasional babysitter. She said that is what she pays her curre t nanny who is leaving for a retail job. I said yes but now I am regrething it. I currently nanny for another family with one child for 13 dollars an hour.

I am going back later tonight to meet the children. How can I counter offer her without pissing her off. I definately want to babysit for her on weekends but I feel like nannying in the morning is going to make for a long day (since I nanny for another family in the afternoons) and 10 an hour isn't worth it to me.

Help please I am still new to this.[/quote]

If $13 is worth it to you then $10 is worth it. You make it sound like you make $50 an hour and $10 isn't worth getting out of bed. You are talking about a difference of $3 an hour for ONE MORNING A WEEK....[/quote] you're a complete idiot and I wish you'd fall off the face of the planet. The less you make,  the more of a difference a couple dollars an hour makes. It's a gallon of milk and some gas,  whereas the person who makes $40 is still earning a living wage when their pay was cut from $50.they still make rent,  can still afford to eat and pay for transportation. I feel sorry for you that you're too stupid to get the difference between a pay cut for a $50 an hour employee vs a $15 employee. [/quote]

By your dumb person logic I am even more right because if she is so poor and hard up for money then she shouldn't think twice about taking the job because she needs every bit she can get. She currently isn't working that one morning a week so even if she does only 3 hours that's $30 she didn't have before. So grow up and get some brains.[/quote]
