高中生在KUMON上了一年的课，进展不错。昨天回来，开开心心地告诉我说，老师兼owner问她要不要来为KUMON做part time 工作，帮忙低年级的小朋友。
女儿没有马上答复她，说需要回家看看schedule，也要跟家长商量一下。
我知道她很想要这份工作，但不想插手，让她自己抓紧时间答复。
暑期的时候，她就已经准备好简历，在家附近的店铺递了几张简历了。
今天放学回来，她查了calendar，给老师答复了，告知她的available time和 prefer的时间。
老师迅速回信，说接下去四个周四放学后都要参加培训。培训是不带薪的。
我和她哥哥一听，这个有问题啊。我家其他孩子这个年纪也有打过part time工，从来没有听说培训不带薪。
我让女儿去谷歌安省的法律，然后截屏发给老师。
老师答复，“I have my own policies. So the first two Thursdays will be the training period and then you will start getting paid from October.. If it is fine for you.. let me know.
Everyone who works here has to do the same thing. ”
我让我女儿把球抛给我，她答复老师“I'll let my mom talk to you about it. ” 然后CC给我了。
不是很有文化的我，给老师的信是这样写的。
“Dear####,
My older children at this age took part time jobs in retail, tutoring (Mathnasium) etc. All training hours were paid. This is the first time I heard the training hours are not paid. That's why I asked my daughter to Google Ontario Law and find out herself.
Maybe you didn't know the law. But now you know it. This is Canada. The law is THE LAW.
We appreciate the offer. The amount is not significant. But you and I are all her role models. Let's all follow the law to have every training hour paid.
..."
然后，她答复“Hello ###,
I honestly didn't know that at all.
Thanks to ###### to bring it up. Sure I will honour it. Let her start next week at 4pm Thursday.
”
皆大欢喜。我告诉女儿，有法律保护的时候，背得挺直了，该要的权益，不能不要。Law is THE LAW。
