Live-in caretaker

March 18th 2008 02:45
Sydney rent is getting ridiculous, with landlords pushing up the rents, seemingly indifferent to the terrified pleas of their tenants.

If you're young, it's not really a problem; you'll crash with some friends, sleeping on their couch, with just enough space to store your overnight bag, with the tight jeans and the faux-vintage T-shirt you got from Birkenhead Point.

It's the older people that suffer... what respectable middle-aged man/woman is going to crash on a friend's couch? Your friends don't have couches to crash on; no, they've got leather couches to sip cognac on. Get off my couch, you deadbeat!


Luckily, there are people willing to let you stay with them, even giving you a nice salary of $50 000. All you got to do is look after their children.

Potts Point Live-in Caretaker.

No, biggie.

And, when they go on their annual vacation cruise, you'll tend the house alone, taking care to make sure the boiler doesn't get overheated.

This'll be a great time to get to work on that novel you've been working on. Sit alone with a typewriter, stare forlornly out the window, chase your family around with an axe.

What? Huh? Just kidding...

No, seriously, there used to be a family that lived there. Something bad happened.

What happened, Timmy?
