We're back here again with yet another post from Reddit where we'll look into a post from the Choosing Beggars thread. This thread is where everyone goes to talk about cheap people or people that resemble "beggars" and are asking for money or expecting a lot for a little.

It's a pretty popular thread, and we love looking into the posts from here because they're all pretty interesting and get a lot of feedback. So, with this all being said, we're looking into a post today that was submitted by someone who is showing their cousin's job offer.

OP says that her cousin claims "nobody wants to work," but clearly, by the offering, we can see that it's a ridiculous request, and that's why nobody is biting at the job offer. OP shares the actual posting, and pretty much everyone agrees that what she's asking for is ridiculous.

A few things she wants done are someone to pick six kids up from school, run errands, clean, and more. We wouldn't want to do that either.

If you're interested in seeing the full post and hearing what everyone has to say in the comments below, then keep on reading as we dive in and share with you the full post and all of the best comments we could find on it.

OP shares her cousins post so that we can see exactly what she needs done and what she's offering for it to be done.

This is one thing that we can't get past. This and taking care of 6 kids and picking them up from school.

Yep this sounds about right because clearly this mom is entitled and thinks that $15 is worth taking care of all these kids, plus some.

So many people are telling her just to tell her cousin that it's a ridiculous ask but she said she can't do it.

This would be a no from us because that sounds like an awful lot of work and working for moms is tough.

Working for three different families under one pay and one agreement just sounds terrible and we wouldn't want to ask anyone to go through that honestly.

This is something to consider as well that soemone might not have even realized and that's that you'll have to have a pretty large car to carry 6 kids from school.

That would be a more fair agreement and maybe worth it honestly but otherwise, it wouldn't be worth the hassle you'd be going through.

I could honestly assume by the post and the way they said things that yeah, they probably can afford to pay more so it's sad that they won't.

Clearly her cousin doesn't understand because many of us know what it's like to work with that many kids.

If you're a parent, then you can understand just how much they're asking this person to do and with 6 kids, that's a lot for anyone. Nobody would probably pay $15 to $20 an hour for this situation, and we can't imagine that asking for this amount would be doable for anyone taking care of 6 kids plus cleaning, etc.
