[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it's a 2.5 hr/day position and you pay 17/hour the cost of those benefits (10 Days vacation/sick, 10 fed holidays) is over 8%. So an extra 850 (10,200 for hours worked, 850 for hours not worked) a year or the equivalent of paying 18.41 for actual hours worked.[/quote] If child care is a fixed expense, then it doesn't suddenly cost you more to continue paying what you'd always pay for a holiday. Its only more expensive in the sense that you aren't "saving" on the holidays and vacation. To me, this seems like a very small price to pay for continuous and reliable care. Your job is then desirable enough to attract candidates who can keep their word, who know how to be professional, who aren't going to blow off a 2hr morning gig (that they don't really need) because they had a long night. You probably spend more than that on Starbucks in a year. Its not hard to do, and it makes a huge difference. [/quote]
