Juggilng Part-timers!

[apples and bananas]

I find it so difficult to juggle part timers. Unless they have a really set schedule... and even then a shift get's switched, gramma can't take them on XXX day etc. I found it to be a pain, but sometimes you have to do it to make ends meat. The unfortunate part is that you just can't terminate one when a good FT comes around. PT's are also harder to transition and harder to keep to a set schedule as the parents aren't always on the same timeing as you are on their days home.

I have 1 spot for PT and it's really because my comfort level is 3 - 4 so I'm rarely over 4. I have 5 on my schedule, 1 is part time, 1 is before and after school, 3 are full time. But it took me a year and 2 terminations to get to this point.
