[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this is part-time work, they most likely are not depending on your salary in order to survive. They may just be making a bit of pocket money.

Also, since you work from home, they probably assume that since you are home, it won't be much of a hardship for you if they leave you high and dry.

No good. During your future interviews, I would stress to them that their presence is vital to you doing your job.[/quote]

I agree with this. It is really, really hard to find reliable, long-term part time help. I WAH, and since I switched from part time to full time nannies, reliability has gotten much, much better.

There is a reason people are working part time. Sometimes because it's all they can get (so they are likely to leave if they find full time), or because it works for their schedule (best case scenario). Sometimes, though, it's because they have too much going on to commit to a job, but need money, or have never really gotten out of the "school years" mindset where work comes behind family, entertainment, and school.[/quote]
