People who are mad at Megan

Megan obviously doesn't want to go on vacation with us. What a crock of shit to say stuff like "It's too late to find someone else" when there's still a week, and she had over a week from the time she found out she was scheduled to work. Oh, and the bullshit about needing to train someone in, c'mon! Nobody's ever trained me in before I babysat. All that's needed is a brief overview before the parent leaves. And a list of phone numbers. You don't have to be a fucking professional to take care of kids. Get some balls and tell the parents they have to get a replacement, which they should have anyways. Every parent should have more than one babysitter. Everyone we've talked to (parents themselves) have said that a week is more than enough time, and they don't need to be trained in. Oh, and just because someone hasn't gone to school for early-childhood education and daycare doesn't mean they don't know anything about kids.
