[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two things:

1. she absolutely should not have been late.
2. you are cutting it too close for the pickup. Your MB has a terrible history with being on time. Even if she didn't, one bad traffic day for her would land you in the same position.
3. Tell her if she's late on Wednesday in the future, you will take her child to pick up the other child, drop him off after, and charge her for all the extra time it takes you.

It is an unfortunate reality of the kind of job where you are the sole caretaker, that you can't leave until someone gets there.[/quote]

OP here and thank you for your response.  I only have one car seat in my car so I cannot take my charge and former charge in the car at the same time.  And I really am not cutting it too close if MB is on time.[/quote]

So get another car seat or another job. I think you are going to be annoyed at any job you get, though. There will always be that one thing that isn't perfect. The problem is that at some jobs, it's many more than one thing.

I am not a nanny, but I have never, ever had a job where I got off on time 100% of the time. Not hourly jobs, not salaried jobs, not casual gig jobs. Maybe people who work in a factory, I don't know. But most of those jobs had coworkers, so if I HAD to be out on time one day, I could arrange it in advance. [/quote]

OP is not asking to leave on time 100% of the time and has stated that she regularly stays late without being bothered or even charging her employer for it.

She's asking to leave on time 20% of the time (one day per week).[/quote]
