We currently have a cleaner every week. I want to cut this down to every other week since a) it's expensive and b) we don't need someone every week.
I asked her today if that was ok, and said I'd understand if she wanted to leave us to find someone who could hire her every week. She said she'd stay and do every other week but only if we paid her more.
IMO this is undermining what we set out to do (i.e. save money), plus we'd basically be giving her a salary rise for no reason (since it wouldn't be twice as dirty - I'd do the cleaning in her week off).
DH thinks we should go with it, but I think we're being ripped off.
I'm happy to find someone else so don't mind if she leaves us entirely.
AIBU in refusing to pay her more?
