How do you get a dilemma out of this? You receive a salary, they have offered you a fixed monthly, they pay the same, and you get the same each and every month regardless of events. Then, at these events you plan, they can get you a per diem in a way. The host will be billed for the actual time, so you get some more money.
I suppose you could refuse to be treated like a peon who is paid by the hr, and not attend the events. Not much of a future in event planning if you don't show up though.
