EDIT: Okay guys thank you for your comments I have an update!!
I am no longer working for her as I just got a new client. Had my interview with her today and it went well and I'm starting tomorrow so I'll be sending the other woman a message and letting her know I won't be working for her anymore
Okay no judgment please. For context, she's a single mom and she is really poor and so sometimes she'd pay me late which I didn't mind cause I understood she needed to focus on bills and groceries. But it's been like 2 months now and she hasn't paid me. She said she'd pay me the weekend of Thanksgiving but never did and then when I met up with her again she mentioned she had another car payment so I didn't wanna say anything about the missing payments. She owes me up to 1000 dollars by now. I feel bad saying anything cause like, she's clearly struggling but I'm also kinda upset cause the money I get from babysitting is for groceries. Luckily I have another family I sit for that pays me on time so it's not like I can't pay for groceries right now but after this coming week that family won't need me for 2 weeks, which means I won't be getting income for 2 weeks. I don't know how to approach this without sounding rudeπ
Change the scenario -
If you worked at Walmart and they didn't pay for you 2 months - you gonna keep showing up?
Fact of the matter is the longer you let it continue, the longer you're going to get taken advantage of and still not paid.
Cut your losses with this client. If you can get the money they owe you, great - but don't keep giving them more of your time and money for free.
