[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm  the pp who noted 2200 a month. I should have been more clear, it's for 35 hours a week and not 50 but the idea is the same... you do not need to pay $25 an hour that's absurd[/quote]

I think the OP started at $18/hr. With 10 hours of overtime for 50 hours, that's $18x40 + $27x10 = $990/wk. What about that seems outrageous to you? Even starting at $15/ht, with overtime you end up at $825/wk. Add taxes, unemployment insurance, coverage for days off, mileage reimbursement ... $4000/mo for 50 hours a week is probably about right if you're doing it legally and want to be comfortable with what you're spending..

Oh, and if you think it's just great to be paying someone under $30K a year who lives in the DMV area for full time work in 2016, I think you've got an ethics problem. Yes, I realize $500/wk is close to $15/hr, but I hope that job is structured so she at least has time for a second gig. I think you ought to hire her for the extra five hours a week and make it actually $15/hr. And I'm one of the MBs who thinks the entitled nannies on this board with their ridiculous salary requirements are turning off potential employers. [/quote]
