This week has been hell. Pure hell.

I have been watching a baby for about 3 weeks now. Last week they dumped the news on me that they were bringing her at 6:30am and leaving her for 2 extra hours, without an increase in pay. I told them that would not fly… get her early or pay me for 6 hours. They decided $100 more a month was just too unreasonable (I charge waaaaayyyy less than 50% what they would pay elsewhere, probably closer to 30%).

So today is day three of the new change… should we see if they will get her one time? Monday dad had training, he got her 3 hours late. This was pre-arranged so I was only slightly irritated.

Yesterday, 10:30am came and went… no pickup. FINALLY at 11:15 they come get her… I bit my tongue, he bitches the entire time how tired he is… wahhh, YOU asked to work nights, you CHOSE to not increase the 4 hour agreement, you picked up late and you STILL got more sleep than I did.

Today if he is late, I am not biting my tongue. 4 hours of listening to a baby cry for no reason is my limit. Yesterday my baby sat in a shitty diaper for 30 minutes because I was waiting for him to get here and I didn’t want my options to be either change him while holding her, or change him while listening to her wail.
