You Don't Own A Babysitter

I was just reading an article where the trust was broken between two friends.

The first had a babysitter she had been using for some time and for some reason her friend needed the sitters services, she said just one time, and as it turns out the friend has used the sitter more than once and when the original person needed her she was unavailable...because she had already promised her "friend" she would sit for her the night that was needed.

Come to find out also that the borrower pays better than the first and can you guess which person is going to get priority on the sitter ? I think it was a little shaky how the whole thing came about, but money still talks and in this case, the friendship walked.

I don't know how I would have handled this situation if it happened to me, but I can tell you now I am a little upset with the problem that just arose between the friends. It goes back to the saying, "you have many acquaintances and few friends".

Now I see what is meant by that statement.
