Babysitting

How late is too late? Babysitting for a mum at school and they aren't home yet. I'm exhausted.

Are you being paid? Or is it a favour? If it is a favour anything after 11 is too late. If you are being paid it is double time after midnight, round up to the full hour, and taxi home.

Favour. Text to say home in five mins. Taking the piss. Said there was wine and there wasn't !

Guess you've learned a lesson - no more babysitting for this CF. I'd be well pissed off.

I hope they're paying for you to get a cab home.

Home now, they got a cab and when they got out I got in. They were pissed. Lesson learnt indeed , I'm too nice.

did they pay you the taxi?

OrigamiZoo · 07/12/2018 01:35

Yes, it was an Uber. I'm all wound up now and can't sleep. 😞 I'm going to be useless tomorrow.

They are definitely cheeky fuckers.

That's very late. When did they say they would be home? Will you tell them it was too late? I would. I would t start an argument but I'd let them know it wasn't ok.
