Sigh..have had a school run child for ages now..things have changed that much i honestly cant think for the life of me what i used to do to what i do now in terms of days and even the mum is confused. I now have her dd too.
The current contracted set up is:
Tue her dd, school run 3.30pm (this used to be her ds but swopped them over as he has club)
Wed her dd and ds after school at 5pm as school club
We had to juggle this lots as i am full every night after school and the only reason i do weds is the fact it is a later pick up.
So i get a call a while ago asking if i can pick the dd up at 3.30pm today..i say no due to the fact i am full and what happened to the 5pm..she says the club finished and was only lasting for 5 weeks so needs me earlier??..she then asked whether this was a permenant thing that i couldnt pick her up at 3.30pm to which i said yes as was never agreed at 3.30pm.
Thing is mum is fab..very easy going, always apologising for me getting them etc (although i do get paid!) brings me flowers and chocs etc! I was really pleased to secure them both for 2 days and now looks like she is going to do herself and ive just turned somone away.
I said i would write down what we had planned so she could see in writing (of course they could look at the contract!)..we will go from there..typical hey!
So am i in the right or am i missing something!
