I should probably explain a little more of the conundrum!
My budget is very tight right now and has been w/o any summer employment, but now that school is in session - I have a part time job available close to home. That will allow me to meet expenses easier and maybe even sock some away for next summer (or whenever)
I do not have enough $$ to play with to pay a daycare upfront and the cost of gas (at best, that's going to run me $200+ this next month) to get back and forth to work on a handshake.
And that's what bothers me; this guy is the owner of a small company, couldn't wait to strike this deal w/me by shaking my hand. Then I find out that's how he worked it w/the service. They went out to find me on his word and a handshake! And he did make a little 'quip' about never being late on his employee's paychecks 'YET'! They are all foreigners that work there (nothing against that, but I'll be the outsider and expendable!)
Actually, tho, I'm not worrying about it too much. After he called me and said that we don't have a deal until I get them off his back - I knew that was wrong. I will straighten it out Tuesday morning by removing myself from the middle of the sitch. And let him make up his mind from there.
