Contract your local legal services clinic, bar association free legal clinic, or a law school legal clinic to get representation.

You are supposed to get a table?  What does that mean?

Since you seem to have alot of free time, try this little experiment.
Go stand in front of the mirror and practice saying No.

So, with Christmas being right around the corner... you need to find another job so that you can have one, pay your bills or whatever.. and sorry you have to find a new sitter on such short notice. Merry Christmas ass hole.

Done deal... life experience... move on. You got ripped off, you let them do it more than once. Learn and move on. I'm sorry you got ripped off... but you did. Now let them know you won't get ripped off again. You go back for more and you only have yourself to blame. Do keep in mind... in cash situations like that... get paid in advance for sitting. Many sitters do it that way just for this reason.

Go take a walk, blow off some steam.

I do not think the inability to purchase a table is any great disaster.

Really, if this continues to happen to you, you are the common denominator... fix it.

Status: offline 		Yeah, it's frustrating when people don't keep their word. I don't know what legal recourse you have with the type of job that it was and being in Canada. You have a small menu of things you can do - bother them until they cough up some or all of the money or let it go. The next decision to make is whether to keep babysitting for them or not. With their history I'd recommend not.

And of alllllllllllllllllll those people there is one common denominator. YOU!

You are bringing this drama on yourself. In essence, you are bending over and asking for it.

I think you need to pay attention to Lockit's common denominator statement here. If it's happened to you before and still happens then you need to acknowledge that you need to work on some things here. First of all recognizing situations that have the potential to screw you over, secondly not getting into them. It sucks having to deal with things but don't let yourself be a victim. It's our own responsibility how others treat us on an ongoing basis.

They have the nerve to contune to text me about how they dont know if they will have the money to buy their children gifts or pay bills etc...how they owe 8000 to the goverment etc....I WILL not be made the idiot...Im better then that...just because im submissive and like pleasing other does NOT make me a walking carpet for jerks...! From now on I say cash up front or No work if i decide to babysit and i really dont have to babysit its purely for "spending money." My husband does ok...! And once im done college I will have a business going and hopfully do okay too! But thank you all for your comments and caring thoughts its appericated!!!
