[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I call shenanigans on this post. Entertaining, but APs are not permitted to work outside of their childcare duties with their HF under the J1 visa.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My AP has been going to the gym still.  She says it is mostly empty.[/quote]

She's irresponsible. [/quote]

I agree - if someone is living in my home and interacting with my family, I think it makes sense to expect them to at least ask what the family policy is on this matter. Our AP is in her last week, flying back to German on Sunday unless I can get her an earlier flight. She does a lot of modelling and went out on a shoot this morning. We have been talking for days about the need to distance ourselves and avoid non essential contact, and the way she was responding suggested she was just planning to stay home this week so I was shocked when I realised what she had done. If she wants to continue to go out and do things like this for the next week I'm tempted to tell her to go stay in a hotel (not all her shoots are paid, I'd say 90% of them are for her portfolio, so if she has paid ones this week she can pay for her own hotel!). It is not fair if the rest of us are taking precautions but one person in the house isn't.[/quote][/quote]

We're in Canada, and anyway most of her modelling work is unpaid. [/quote]
