*Update* Received by email: My employer's {*ex} husband {visiting from California} paid me by check this morning (Thursday). He was making it out in front of me and said, and this is a quote as I best recall it, "I am adding $50 to make up for the money your check was shorted last week". And that was it. No other mention of it. I was still stewing about it and thinking about how I would bring it up because I knew I was in the right. She must have told him and he corrected her. Either way, I feel much better, but I will definitely not be putting out any money in advance in the future.
I have been working for this family for two months. Last week was Spring Break. The single mom I work for was out of town for two nights and three days. She forgot to leave the credit card for house use so I used my own cash, as I have before to pay for household or kid's needs. She had told me to "find some fun stuff to do with them". So for the week, we went to see Cinderella, went to to ride Go Karts, went to lunch out at a barbecue place and did a host of other non cost things. I left the bill with her on Friday. This morning, she left me a reimbursement check. It was minus $38.75. She wrote, "Annie, I'm not paying for you to see movies and go out to dinner". I am so PISSED off. Her children are 6 & 10. I really want to quit over this! (Originally posted on 3/30/15 @ 955 AM)
