Ha, ha, good one. You just eliminated 75% of DC area nanny jobs requiring a car.


I live-in, and most live-in positions provide a car, so it only eliminates 5-10% of the jobs that I would take.

Wow good find ! Op don't pay her anything


Except that's a driver side rear-view mirror, not a window.


I paid $75 for that for my BMW SUV and they installed it for free in 2 seconds when I went to ask how to install it (click in). It was just the mirror that goes into the frame, not the part that holds the mirror though.
