I worked as a babysitter for a wealthy couple. I went above and beyond — late nights, extra hours, even traveling with them. When I told them I was quitting, they begged me to stay and offered to double my salary. I said no. A few days later, I received a letter from them.
I thought it might be a thank-you note or even a bonus. Instead, it was a bill for everything they’d “invested” in me, including a phone they’d bought so I could stay in contact with them and fees for training they’d insisted I take. I ignored the letter, and they didn’t follow through, but it was a crazy experience.
