'We won't be paid, [so] my answer was no': Daycare worker refuses to work overtime for the school's Christmas party, gets criticized for lacking 'Team Spirit'
During the holidays, it's almost inevitable that someone at the dinner table will ask you for free services related to your career. If you're a lawyer, you'll likely be asked for legal advice over the Christmas ham. If you're a doctor, your distant cousins might ask you if the mole on their neck is benign after a few too many glasses of grog. And if you're a daycare worker, you'll likely be asked to volunteer for free at your school's kiddo Christmas bash.

I'm all about being amicable during the holiday season, but when your own work asks you to do your job without pay, there's no amount of Christmas spirit that'll make that acceptable. When it comes to family and friends pushing the envelope on your free expertise you may let it slide a little, but your employer doesn't have the right to ask you to volunteer for anything…. and I mean ANYTHING.
