they are bitches!!!
okay im 14/f.
i started babysitting at the beginning of the school year. the lady who hired me said that she needed someone she would be able to rely on. she pays really good money but recently her hours got changed and i'm working 3:30 to 6:00 when usually i only did 3:30 to 5:00. i don't even get to eat with my family. and when i get home all i wanna do is just go to bed.
the kids are fucked up. they get disciplined but their mother just laughs when she yells at them. they're really spoiled and get their way all the time.
the other day i was watching them and i was swinging on this swing. well their dog attacked me for no reason. when i told the mother she said "oh sometimes you just need to hit him" he even ripped my pants! there's a small hole in the pants and there's a HUGE bruise on my leg from where he bit me.
when i got my paycheck their was no money for the pants that the dog ripped. i'm really sick of them and i wanna quit but i don't know how to say it. if the dog bites me again i'll have no problem but what should i do in the mean time? i was thinking of giving her my two weeks notice but chickened out. what do i say?

Want to answer more questions in the Domesticity category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Babysitting?
well tell the lady you worked for that the dog was ruining your clothes and you would appriate if she would put the dog it a basebent of something while you were there or what i would just do is stop baby sitting there

Kill the dog. Then quit.

sounds like you are between a rock and a hard place, huh? well, i would tell them "Listen, i enjoy babysitting your children and everything," (even though you may not enjoy it) "but some things have come up and i can't babysit these hours any more." if she asks what has come up, tell her you're doing a school sport or you are in some kind of club.
if you don't want to talk to them directly, you can leave them a note one night after babysitting. then they will see it when they get home after you leave.if they question you about it, just say what was in the letter. that something has come up and you can't do those hours anymore.
i hope i helped.

Just talk to her and tell her that you think you arent being treated right an that you dont want to babysit her children if she doesnt change and treat your fairly. Also mention the hours 3:30 to 6:00 is not very good for you ,you could fall behind on your homework to as well as not eating with your family. If she doesnt understand what your own about just quit. I know i might be hard for you to say this but you cant go on being treat unfairly and being taken advantage of.

you can sue them for the dog biting you... first quit and just be like oh i am sorry but i dont hink this ir working out anymore. i really feel like i need more time to myself - i will babysit once and a whilr though. i hope this works...
hope i helped

this same thing happend to me not too long ago what i did i just said everytime that they asked me i said that i really dont feel like dealing with the dog anymore so everytime i went to babysit i asked them to put the dog away, and to help with the quitting buisness just try putting the dog away and see if that helps at all. if not just say to your parents taht you dont want to babysit them anymore and talk to their mom and tell her too

well tell her that you dont think that you are a good matchfor her family anymore

Don't even give your 2 weeks notice. Call her up and quit. If her dog BIT you and she doesn't even care, then she definately isn't someone you should be working for. If the situation bothers you then get out.
Good Luck!

if your dat bothered about it make some excuse that you cant work for her anymore. its just not exceptable

I Would tell her that you are seriously thinking of Quitting, because of that, then explain why and then let her decide if she could up your pay or you would quit, if the dog bit you, then do something aboput it!, you do have rights which stop you wfrom working in dangerous environments, such as, near the dog...

if i was you i would ask for the money to replace your pants . and if she doesnt give you the money quit baby-sitting for her and the little brats

Walk up to her and tell her that you cant take it that the kids are bratts and the dog bit you and that there was no money in the check for the pants and tell her on the spot that you quit and walk away!
Hope i helped

You can tell her that the job doesn't fit in with your schedule anymore (because of the new hours), you know, since you don't eat dinner with your family and go to sleep from being tired.

well you could just tell her....but i know thats not easy....i'm not sure if this is good advice but i would probably say something like:
"my grades are slipping at school and i need to focus" or "my parents want me home more for ::insert reason here::"
hope that helps!

tell them you dont think it is right that they didnt do anything after their dog attacked you. they might get offended and fire you but who really cares!? you want to quit the job anyways so i guess thats the perfect way out. tell her how you feel about it and she can either accept it and try to make some changes or get rid of you. either way you will win. if she doesnt fire you and you still want out and you cant get the guts to say anything, just come up with excuses every time so u dont have to babysit and eventually she wont call you anymore.

Can you think of someone who might like the job?
If so tell her I can't babysit anymore because the new hours aren't good for me. But, I do have someone who would be interested.
The big thing is leaving her with no one to watch her kid's. If you found someone else she wouldn't have to and you wouldn't have to give the two weeks notice either. Unless maybe she wanted you to trin the new person. :)
