Parents gave notice... rant.

I care for a pair of siblings. Yesterday, mom sent me a text after drop off giving me her notice and last scheduled day is Nov 18. Turns out sending kids to a centre and had been on a wait list. Now I am not sure if I will take on anymore kids and have been looking for part time work outside the house to keep my options open. Fantastic timing (insert sarcasm).

I have some paid personal days left. And I intend on taking one tomorrow. Is it completely wrong of me to take Rembrance Day off too? Dad is Federal Gov and will be home. I just feel like using up the 4 paid personal days I have left. Ugh.

Sorry this is happening to your.

I take Remembrance Day off with pay. I don't see a problem with taking it off.

It depends on how much notice your contract says you will give for days off?

On a side note - Remembrance Day is a paid day off in my contract

I take it off as a paid day too, so it would be good to tell all the Parents before hand so no confusion
