On January 26,2022, I contacted, over the telephone, a former student of mine at Purdue, who baby-sits our two sons and asked if she would sit for us on February 14,2022, from 5:00pm to 11:30pm. She agreed and the pay would be $8.00 an hour. My wife and I planned on having dinner in Indianapolis and seeing a play. The sitter said she would take care of our boys. Because of this quiz, I decided that I could not spend that much time on entertainment, so on February 13, I called the sitter and told her that we wouldn't need her the 14th. The sitter tried to get another sitting job on the 14th, but was not able, so she watched television that evening. What contractual issue(s) are relevant to this situation?
