[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]OP here and the job/family is here.

I actually don;t think I can take this job. I don't mind the extra work with hand-washing dishes or line drying diapers - but I can't imagine how I would properly care for a child in the dog-days of summer. [b]I am going to quote an much, much higher rate and let them turn me down. [/b]

Thanks, everyone.[/quote]

Why would you lead them on by giving them a high quote when you know you aren't taking the job? That's unprofessional.[/quote]

OP here.  I would suffer through the summer for a much higher rate of pay.  That was the point of my question - should I up my rate for the loss of creature-comforts and I got the impression that the answer was yes.  [/quote]

I have no problem with that.  You can set your rates to whatever you feel is fair for the job.  My issue is your childish way of dealing with not wanting the job.  If you don't want the job, then turn it down.  That is what grown ups do.  Don't make up some stupid excuse.  Learn to speak up and say no.  It's liberating!
