[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not that she didn't pay for more. It's just that even though $12 is the rate, that rate is barely enough for a sitter to put gas in her car. Also, it seems like the mom didn't specify time so when she got home after an hr, OP rightfully felt gypped. [/quote] Gas is what, $4/gallon? Average car gets at least 20 miles to the gallon? Unless babysitter has an 80 mile round trip, she's making money. Also - look up gypped. Ethnic slur. You sound either uneducated and/or obnoxious when you use that term. [/quote] The fact remains that $12 is not a lot of money. It is when it is adding up, but this is the reason why "1 hr" sitting gigs get left at the bottom of the barrel. I'm aware of the context of "gypped". Its history is based in ethnic stereotyping, but it has evolved as a word. A lot of words have not so favorable beginnings. [/quote]
