When I worked at TRU I was in charge of Birthday parties. We did alot of parties on the weekends 7-8 a day our parties were an hour and a half and we had a 30 min window for clean up and set up for the next party (1 Room ) We had several times that MOM would say " we are waiting for suzzie's 15th cousin 243 times removed on her fathers mothers sister side to get here " which would put us in a real bind. Then I would have to discount 4 parties because DUMBO could not read a clock and get there on time so what we went to was a signed agreement (Party is from 1:00pm - 2:30pm) anything past was $50 a half hour. AMAZING most parties started on time and ended on time after that. Late comers just had to jump in where ever we were in the party (Would mom or dad want to get to work and have their boss say wait a half hour before you clock in but go ahead and start working?)
