Kiss Babysitting Goodbye

I suppose before I go too far, the words “kiss” and “babysitting” may be the wrong words to search for on the Internet. Anyway, stick with me a minute….

It seems that some political geniuses think that baby sitters are so overworked that they need some serious protection laws.

Just how grossly overworked are babysitters who sit on a couch, making out with the boyfriend, and consuming a bag of Doritos?

Overworked enough for some serious help. Here is a snippet of the Bill…

Under AB 889, household “employers” (aka “parents”) who hire a babysitter on a Friday night will be legally obligated to pay at least minimum wage to any sitter over the age of 18 (unless it is a family member), provide a substitute caregiver every two hours to cover rest and meal breaks, in addition to workers’ compensation coverage, overtime pay, and a meticulously calculated timecard/paycheck.

You can read all about the bill here. I am going to go tell my wife that date night is off for the next 20 years.
