I am so making this my new WFH set up!
Wanted to share smth I found recently. I felt like it was pretty darn accurate. I’ll provide the link here but there’s a screenshot I took that I feel I can relate to quite heavily. https://pairedlife.com/love/infatuations
I’ve struggled with so many heavy infatuations before and a friend recommended this. Hope it helps anyone else out there who’s gone through this or may be going through this right now.

What are you getting into this 4 day weekend?
I have no problem lying to get what I want
New to Fishbowl?
unlock all discussions on Fishbowl.
I (manage rentals) and have a cleaner who brings her teenage daughter. She does it to help her daughter earn pocket money and, frankly, it helps instill work ethics. If the kid isn’t literally being forced, I would mind my own business about it. (Seems like a cultural issue as many immigrant families recruit their childrens’ help - check local immigrant restaurant or shops).
The bait and switch is something I’d note IF (and only if) the quality drastically decreases with the substitutes. It’s common for cleaners to hire out help once they pick up enough clients, and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that (literally the business model of any growing company).
🤦🏻♀️ that doesn’t help your point or change mine whatsoever.
OP, you’re looking for validation and you’re not receiving it. You keep trying to justify your thoughts/actions regardless of others inputs. You posted an article that goes against your position but favors those who are opposite your position.
If you’re not going to listen to those who respond, what’s the point of asking? I’m done. There is nothing more that can be said. You’ve already decided what you’re going to do. I don’t support it but it doesn’t matter because you’ll do it anyways. Thanks for wasting everyone’s time here who responded to you.

Well said, A1. Also, if you find posters like OP frustrating, stay away from the singles bowl!😂
I was working when I was younger than that. I had my first real job at 14. You’re making an assumption she is 13 based on looks. You don’t really know how old she is… I don’t know why you would punish anyone for wanting to work. It’s on the company to verify and validate someone’s employment eligibility not you. Just ensure they get paid on time. If something happens naturally (don’t pry, don’t snoop or look into things), then approach the subject at that time and address appropriately. Otherwise, you’re speculating.
OP, so now you know her school schedule? How do you know she isn’t home schooled? Again, you’re sticking your nose into something where it doesn’t belong. I’ll put this politely. Back off!
If you’re concerned about getting sued on your property, well that can happen with anyone at anytime on your property. If your problem is concerning their licensing, then stop using them and find a licensed cleaner. It’s simple. You’re starting shit where you shouldn’t. It’s easy for you to just stop service and hire a different firm, so do it! If you leave a review do it based on the quality of the service provided and leave this noise out of it.

I know first world problems.
School is in session and this is during the day in the middle of when this child is supposed to be in class.
I’m never going to use the cleaner again but should I write some thing on the neighborhood app letting people know about the bait and switch and child labor concerns?

As a parent to a 13 almost 14 year old daughter, you are completely out of line OP.
Are you around ANY young teens nowadays??? Let me tell you something, they are some young HUSTLERS and entrepreneurs.
My daughter hounds me constantly on what can she do to earn money, any odds and end jobs she can pickup etc.
She would LOVE the opportunity to help someone out with their business just at the chance at making some extra money. This is NOT exploiting minors and you are looking at it from a completely skewed perspective.
“important to let people know who’s going to be in their home” — does it really matter in this case???Consenting parent, teen child that’s willing/wants to work… I don’t see anything that’s harmful about this.
My daughter is homeschooled so yeah, she wouldn’t be in a classroom during school hours either. Am I a terrible parent if I let her out during the day to learn some good and valuable REAL life skills after she finishes her schoolwork?

I get you OP. Years ago I knew a family that basically employed a child as their babysitter. She was some kind of family member but not a close family member from 3rd world country. She didn't go to school. She seemed quite happy tho. I didn't report them but thought about it a lot. I still feel bad that this kid was taken advantage of and wonder how her life went, what she is doing now

Also in your case, I would let the contactor know that I want the same consistent ppl and no kids. I just wouldn't feel comfortable having a child work for me in that capacity not knowing if she is being exploited or whether she is able to go to school or not.
I would voice your discomfort directly with the service but not put it out to the world. You don’t wanna be the one taking away food from their mouths.

You can write something about it. But be ready for fewer cleaning folks wanting to do the gig with you moving forward. It is a small community, words travel fast, and everyone needs the money. And who knows if someone you know, reads the comment and doesn't agree with you. And don't get me started on, anything you post online will haunt you forever.
Your choice. Just ready to face the consequences. Just write a nice review, give a rating, and tell people you are open to discuss more about your experience.
