Would you be mad?!?!?!UPDATE*

Ok I have posted on here before about being canelled on with babysitting....3 different times to be correct and yes from the same people. Now she paid me this morning, shorted me a few dollars and paid me til 3!!!!
So guess what!?!?!?! She hasnt been picked up yet by her aunt!!! I called the mom to see if they changed the time and to make sure everything is ok and her phone is off!!!
What would you do? Tell her she owes me an hrs pay, and lets hope it isnt longer then that, or see what happends when she calls back?

Re: Would you be mad?!?!?!

yea thats rude and inconsiderate - what if you had somewhere to be - she should pay you for the extra hour AND for any inconvenience.

Re: Would you be mad?!?!?!UPDATE*

Did you say that sis and her seem to have a lot in common? or did you just think it?

No, Im not like that but, the sister was the one who was coming to get her in the first place not the mom.

Re: Would you be mad?!?!?!UPDATE*

if it was the sisters responibility to pick up the kid I would def let her know how inconvenient it is for you to be held up SO long without notification as to the problem. Also let them know that if this is a common occurrence that the services will longer be offered to them or you will have to charge much more as overtime or something to that effect..... Sorry but people taking advantage of a baby sitter really bothers me since I've been there wayyyyyyy toooooo many times
