Retroactive reimbursement for sick days.

[Inspired by Reggio]

...I tried to change the amount on their cheques a couple of times with their permission, but they didn't have time to initial over several days, so my payment ended up being quite late after they finally got around to it. I have no interest in hounding people day after day to initial the cheque.....

See this confuses me - it takes 10 seconds how can they not 'have time'? And plus because the change was 'my fault' I do not take issue with having to 'take control' of fixing it so to speak - however I do not let them drop off their child or pick them up without having done it - the day before payday when they arrive I hand them the revised cheque and say 'please initial this so I can do my banking tomorrow' and if it is the other spouse who has to do it I send it HOME to do so that it can be brought back the next day - if they FORGET than it is no different than any other late payment issue bring it by pick up or you will be charged a 'late payment fee'.

Honestly I have never had a client who wanted a 'credit' most of them are eager to get their $$ bank in their hands if I have closed unexpectedly for something???
