They got themselves a real deal. One weekend a month like that can add up to some serious savings for these cheap parents.

You do get what you pay for and if your willing to work for less then minimum wage id question that. But someone willing to pay illegal wages is wrong. This happened like 10 years ago, I was really young and probably got lucky that I didn't take the job.


They sound cheap. I would never take anything unpaid more than a couple hours for a trial. 3 days without pay is crazy.

Did you take the job? Why or why not?

They paid for the plane ticket, not me.

MB here. That is batshit crazy. THEY should have flown you across the country if they wanted you that badly. Do not ever do that again.
