[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work Monday-Friday 8:30 am- 5 pm. However, a lot of times I am asked to stay until 5:30 other times until 6:30. I typically don’t mind another half hour but working 8:30-6:30 can be mentally and physically exhausting for me and I don’t get paid over time after the 8.5 hours I work. Even if I were to get paid time and a half, I personally feel asking your nanny to stay later violates her schedule and personal life. Mainly because 9/10 times they’ll ask me right before I have to leave. Both parents have really busy work and the dad travels A LOT. how can I tell them I am not comfortable/willing to do more then half an hour after my scheduled time to leave? I don’t want to be insensitive or inflexible, but I never ask to come in later so why would they ask me to stay later? Maybe the schedule needs to be adjusted to 10 am -6:30. Any thoughts? I also feel if I keep working after 5 pm I will burn out quickly and be unhappy with the job [/quote]
Email them both a note this weekend telling them that starting on Monday you can only do a max of 15 (or 30) min beyond your scheduled work time. [/quote]
