I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I work as a CSR for dominos, part time, minimum wage. I only work night shift A: because I don't have a babysitter​ and can't afford a daycare and B: because of my husband's hours. I have been wanting better opportunities. Well every since I started at Domino's 3 years ago I have constantly been offered management position. I have been at 2 different locations and it keeps getting offered. I talked to my manager last night he said when it comes to management position for me I could set those hours as I wanted and work the rest as a CSR. My issue is I'd have to be available day shift and I'm currently not. I'd be making more money and get more hours. But I also don't want to throw all my checks into a daycare. I don't trust fb sites to find sitters and don't know really anyone where we live to watch the kids. I don't know what to do. I'd love more hours and more money, but don't want more money if it means I throw it all to someone just to watch my kids and then I'm out all the extra money. What would you do?

@chasha2017 I wish we had neighbors with kids. But all our neighbors are 60+ years old and work thru the days.

Wow! Out here in New York, you'd be lucky to find a daycare for under $200 a week 😩

How about hiring a babysitter to come by on the days you have to work morning shift? You can ask your neighbors with kids for suggestions. There's also care.com and urban sitter (app & website) they both do extensive background checks on the sitters...

@chasha2017 the amount of money it would cost to put both of our kids in daycare out here would put us in debt as of right now. Of course he would "help" for the costs, we just simply can't afford an actual daycare. Just for my son alone out here is almost $200 every 2 weeks and we just don't have that kind of money.

I'd take the position. You can't move ahead if u don't take the 1st step. You said your husband works so he should be able to help with daycare costs as well.

I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!

called hr at my job to find out about paid maternity leave. they basically told me I'm ineligible for a paid leave (short term disability) but that I can do a "job protection" leave that's unpaid and I have to use my vacation hours. this is exactly why I will not be returning to taco bell after I have this baby! been working there for almost 3 years, been a manager for almost a year, and I have to use vacation hours for maternity leave!?
