How does this sound?
It sounds like a stupid idea likely to result in misery. Ask yourself (or indeed us) who else is doing this and then ask why not.

I dont have a Co Sec anymore. If I did, you can bet yer boaby it would not be anyone with an 'ex' in front of their name.
Unless, you were to have a signed agreement with the CSA that the wage is an agreed representation in respect of any and all maintenance owed now and in the future, but then the takehome pay would probably have to be equivalent to the maintenance.

But if you have the opportunity to pay her, is the view that it is like a red rag to Hector, or am I missing something as it seems like reasonable to me?Originally posted by FiveTimes View PostBecause its a 5 minute job every Friday that I do at clientCo.
