[quote=Anonymous]"The problem with the common sense approach is that many of us have worked hourly positions. It's actually quite rare in most hourly positions to be paid when you are not scheduled to work. Our nanny got guarenteed hours, and I agree its a good benefit to discuss. But I wish we could tone down the outrage when people don't know to discuss it. The onus truly is on the person who wants an extra benefit to ask for it. " ditto everything here. And i think this IS why many of the guaranteed hours "misunderstandings" come up. If I didn't get scheduled for a shift at the waitress job I worked i did not get paid. I was just a teen so that was fine w/ me and I fully agree it makes sense for nannies to be paid steadily. But most MBs' experience w/ hourly positions will have been that they are a "you work, you get paid" nature. Nanny ones are different - at least in DC area - but why would most new MBs know this?[/quote]
