[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's incredibly rude and I'd be horrified if one of my daughters used that attitude with any prospective employer, family or not.  I think it shows a true lack of maturity to not be able to say that if SIL is not comfortable with the rate then she'll have to look elsewhere.  The snide comment about good luck finding someone else was also unnecessary.  Perhaps if SIL doesn't hire sitters much then your SD could have said "I think you'll find the going rate around here is about twice what you've suggested."

Sticking up for oneself is simply not being coerced into accepting something she's already declined.  It has nothing to do with being snotty and rude.  SIL was wrong to make a case out of it, but that's a separate issue.[/quote]

Not the OP - but are you a boomer who thinks that everyone younger than you exists to serve whatever employer that is willing to bestow the greatest grace of a job upon them? Come on. Get over yourself. [/quote]

Not the pp, and I'm not a boomer, but I think OP and her daughter, and husband were rude. I also think you are ageist and rude.[/quote]
