103. I hope they don't come to you for money

Thu Feb 20, 2025, 10:34 AM

Thursday

because you’re faaaaaaaamily. And family helps each other, doncha know.

If they do, have your answer ready. Me, I wouldn’t mention Trump at all. I would reply with helpful links to job sites like Indeed and LinkedIn. And reminders that she can always drive for Uber and DoorDash - simultaneously. Hey, did you know you can drive for multiple companies at the same time? Double dipping!
She can keep her house if she’s willing to work for it.
And if she doesn’t like those suggestions you sigh and say “Nobody wants to work anymore”.
