[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How hard is it to hire a temp? I don't get this. Yougo to an agency, get a temp and you are set. [/quote] A temp an agency sends you is some random person. By the time you know if they're any good, it's time for them to leave. Sometimes you get a great person who is in between jobs. Sometimes you get someone you would never hire under ordinary circumstances, and its for weeks, not just a day when your nanny is sick. Having agency back-up is also really pricey. A lot of people use their own vacation or grandparents to fill in. No matter how you posit it, covering a lengthy absence is difficult, and when it is for travel, it doesn't seem like the kind of pressing need that maternity leave or an illness might be. A lot of employers won't want to make it work.[/quote]
