I am so rubbish at it!
A parent has booked a load of extra hours with me- last Wednesday, tomorrow, next Wednesday. I emailed her straight away to let her know what she would owe me. She pays me weekly by standing order for her normal hours so i expected her to amend the standing order that week. But so far, nothing. Maybe she is planning on paying cash. It says on the contract that fees are to be paid in advance so it's not like she will be waiting until i have actually worked all the extra hours.
I know i just need to ask her for it, but how?! I find it so hard.....'you owe me £x please.'
AND i know it shouldn't make a difference but i know she is really struggling financially at the moment.....makes it so much harder.
Plus i have another who is due to pay me tomorrow but LO is away with his Dad and won't be back with me until next Wednesday.....so i need to ask her to drop the money round this week. If i thought i'd definitely get it next Wednesday i'd leave it but chances are she will forget and i may be waiting until the following week!
Can one of you lot do it for me please?! lol!
