I saw it on a thread a while ago but can't remember the name of the thread!
Am getting really fed up of people using me... had one mum sign a contract for 3 days after school. She has the sort of work where she books clients in so even tho I went through the small print with her she thought she wouldn't have to pay if mindee didn't come. When she found out she threatened to leave so (being kind AND desperate!) I said to only pay me for Mondays as her child is the only one I have that day so otherwise it would be a day off for me, then pay me for the other days if she uses me.
Well lo and behold she seems to be very busy with clients until 5.30 every monday but has no clients the other days when she's not paying me. BUT is still claiming tax credits, and mindee keeps telling me about the 42" plasma they're getting for christmas. :angry:
meanwhile my DS is getting nothing for xmas because we are broke. (he's only 1 so won't even notice!)
