I truly believe in helping the elderly, but if someone provides

Villas - I truly believe in helping the elderly, but if someone provides a service such as cleaning your house or grocery shopping for you please make sure you provide proper payment. Ten dollars is not enough for six hours of work. This is why people are made to sign contracts. Also, make sure you explain to the person up front what the cost will be so there is no surprise when asked for more money. You're providing a service and expect to be paid for your services.
