College student abandons entitled friend's family after they make her their personal vacation worker for 9 people: '[The parents] did a double-take seeing me on the beach'

This rich family thought they had the perfect life-hack for their swanky vacation.

For all of the money and resources they have, a lot of wealthy people are actually super cheap. They'll spend hundreds of thousands on a brand new car, but then refuse to tip the valet. They'll drop a few thousand bucks on some new shoes, then go to a coffee shop next door and freak out because their latte costs 50 cents more than it used to. A lot of rich people defend this kind of behavior by saying that they try to be wise with their money… but it rings hollow when they waste money constantly.

Just take this family, for example. They were flying out on their vacation in first-class seats, which usually cost several thousand dollars at minimum. They should've spent that money on a personal chef, instead. The mom of the family just had hand surgery, which is an important reason to avoid cooking. If there was ever the perfect opportunity to treat themselves to luxurious meals 3 times a day for their whole vacation, that's a fantastic reason!

But no. Instead, this family invited along their college-age daughter and her roommate. The women were psyched for the vacation at first. But the family had them then make all the meals, cooking for 9 people (!) when these women just don't have the skills or resources to do that. That sounds like it could take hours every day! The parents could've saved themselves a lot of hassle, but instead, the college-roommate turned vacation buddy turned chef fled the scene.

Hmm, I wonder if Meg knew what she was doing…

Some people thought Meg did know exactly what would happen

I'm not so sure I agree, though. The family made her cook, too! If she was a good friend, she never would've made her roommate join in. But it's not clear if she knew going into the vacation what was expected of her and her friend.
