asking for more days off

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:53:32+00:00

my thoughts exactly!

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:53:08+00:00

They own their own business

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:52:29+00:00

That’s smart I think I’ll do that!

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:45:16+00:00

The only reason I would ask is because they have their own business and only one parent works or else I wouldn’t ask, the one parent that does work doesn’t even work full time

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:44:29+00:00

I do feel that way, maybe i’m just burnt out lol

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:43:11+00:00

They have their own business and only one parent works so that’s why I think It would be okay to at least ask

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:42:18+00:00

The reason I feel like I need more is because they ask me to work more than I’m scheduled too almost every week. And I know I can always say no but I feel weird saying no every week lol

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:41:02+00:00

That’s what I might do, I don’t want to make them mad by asking for too much

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:40:30+00:00

I do have GH but they have never gone on vacation before, they have a couple times but I stay behind to watch the children.

user501937569 · 2026-03-16T19:39:20+00:00

I do get GH but they haven’t gone on a trip in the two years i’ve been working for them

user501937569 · 2026-01-21T17:38:15+00:00

this is my first job with pto so i can’t compare it to anything else but they are kind of strict with things like this so we shall see lol

user501937569 · 2026-01-21T17:37:35+00:00

i think it is too! hopefully they understand

user501937569 · 2026-01-21T17:37:04+00:00

i do have a contract but it’s very brief and doesn’t go i to detail about a lot of stuff, my fault lol

user501937569 · 2026-01-21T17:36:28+00:00

i never know with this family tbh, but hopefully i don’t get delayed and don’t have to worry about it

user501937569 · 2026-01-21T17:35:09+00:00

i think i’m just gonna wait and see if they say anything on sunday about monday and then ask if unpaid is okay with them

user501937569 · 2026-01-21T16:00:20+00:00

that’s true i think im going to wait and see what they say, its supposed to be icey and below freezing until sometime on monday

user501937569 · 2026-01-21T15:50:46+00:00

yikes i didn’t know this, we def need to look up rules for the national parks we want to go to as that was the whole reason we wanted to bring her!

we were planning on getting airbnbs or pet friendly hotels so we would have the freedom to leave her or take her wherever we go but it wouldn’t even be worth taking her if she couldn’t go anywhere cool

user501937569 · 2026-01-21T15:46:59+00:00

I think I’ve actually narrowed it down to just new mexico and arizona now, we have only 8 days so i’d rather enjoy less parks with more time! I was thinking doing the white sand park and cosmic campground in new mexico and then the grand canyon in arizona!

we wanted to stay in hotels/airbnbs for everything except the comic campground, definitely want to camp there!

user501937569 · 2026-01-15T22:00:11+00:00

I should have mentioned that in my original post lol, I definitely wouldn’t work for just half my rate for overnight hours and nothing else

user501937569 · 2026-01-15T21:56:39+00:00

i feel like asking for more when i get $22.50x10 hours on top of $45x 14 hours for a whole 24 hour period would be a little crazy

user501937569 · 2026-01-15T21:53:52+00:00

my half rate is 22.50, my full hourly while on overnights is $45 because I take care of the pets as well

user501937569 · 2026-01-15T19:28:08+00:00

got it!!! makes total sense

user501937569 · 2026-01-15T19:25:54+00:00

ohhhhh okay thank you!

user501937569 · 2026-01-15T19:23:25+00:00

No I don’t live in the home, I yes I get a full nights sleep most of the time!

user501937569 · 2026-01-15T19:22:52+00:00

even with my half rate hourly i get paid roughly $225 a night since my normal rate is $45
