Why be paid for stats?

[Secondtimearound]

I avoided all of that by charging a monthly rate regardless of attendance, and I made sure in my contract to state my dayhome is closed all stats. The only neg feedback is one of my part timers is mon/friday and is always missing a day it seems but since it is all there in my contract .....
My holidays are taken without pay , which seems right to me but I do know a popular provider who took a month each year and always charged and she had a waiting list. She was with an agency so I dont know if that changes things ?
And she was in BC and had 30 yrs as a provider, I think she deserved it lol !!!!
