“You are more than welcome to hang out + watch TV all night, but if you want to make some extra $, these jobs are up for grabs,” the note read.
It then listed different tasks, including $3 to vacuum the couch, $10 to organize the son’s toys, and $15 to clean the refrigerator.
“If my sitter decides to do this, I’ll be forever grateful. If not, I’ll get to it later like I [already] had planned,” Ivan wrote in the caption.
