'They think I don't need the money': Babysitter Gets Short-Changed by Cheap Parents After They Find Out She Drives a Nice Car

If you went to the gas station and tried to give the cashier $1 for a gallon of gas, they'd probably laugh at you and send you packing. We learn from an early age that goods and services cost money, but somehow, once entitled parents spawn an expensive baby, normalities don't apply to them anymore. So when you're a babysitter with a price sheet and a clear-set menu of the cost of your services, suddenly cheap parents are blind to the societal norms of standard payment practices… At least, that's what happened to the babysitter in our next story. 

After watching the two young children of a nice family nearby, this babysitter had grown comfortable. Normally, she'd take an Uber to the family's house because parking was limited and she lived nearby, but she thoroughly enjoyed her time spent with the kids. Things were dandy! Until recently, she'd never noticed a difference in her pay–a pre-determined $25/hour rate–until after she drove her own car to the house. 

Somehow, because the parents suddenly learned she was driving a 'luxury' vehicle, they decided that they no longer needed to abide by their babysitter's pay rate. I guess they thought 'she didn't need the money' so they went ahead and created their own discounted pricing, short-changing a good babysitter based on a materialistic hunch.
