[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop spending your own money shopping.  If you feel the kid needs something, tell them to get it.

Petty cash is for urgent things (out of whole milk) or things they tell you to get or do. It's not for your random shopping trips or lunches out.

Sounds like you don't like the job because you feel you can find a better job and one that's pays better.  Test the market,nor quit and then test the market. That is a function of your risk tolerance or how miserable you are.[/quote]

Guess you haven't had many jobs since you don't realize different families can do things different ways. The family I work for gave me $200 when I started as cash to cover things when we were out so I would never feel awkward about buying something and having to ask for reimbursement or not having brought cash from the house with us. So since they basically "reimbursed" me up front I just keep general track on a sticky note on my fridge to make sure I stay under the $200 and don't start using my own money.

Then also there is the cash envelope they keep for me at their house, this has about $100-$140 in $20s for anything we need.
