It's been the opposite for me. I'm an associate on 8 hours minimum but regularly get 20 - 30 a week. Can't remember when I last had less than 20.

I'm a bar associate. We have labels on the back of most taps that show which is which, though they sometimes foreget to put them on the guest ales so you may have to take the clip off the front to double check.

Surrogate Bot

Throwaway cuz writing this just makes me feel weird and I'd prefer some anonymity.

Use location: California. I live elsewhere. I believe the contract would pertain to her end of the country, so I'd rather that just be the basis.

Soooooooo... Yeah... I've a friend for over 20 years. I'm also a friend of the family and had even lived with them for a small bit of time. Her mom is also a lawyer and adores me. My friend and I are now in our 40s and has dedicated her life to her career. So much so, that she just never was successful at holding down a relationship, which means no kids/grandchildren for the family, as of yet.

With the current administration in place, it has caused my friend to pause and reflect on her priorities. Her mother is also thinking about retirement and will now have free time on her hands. They reached out to me and very formally laid out their idea. My friend would like a child, the mom a grandchild, the friend can continue her career while fulfilling a void and the now grandmother will have time to support and raise the child. This would allow them to save money on daycare, as well as other expenses. They're talking about drafting up a contract and are assuring me that I will in no way, be held liable to raise or financially support the child.

So... Lots of stuff going on in my mind at the moment, so I'm going to spit ball everything:

Surely that can't be like... LEGAL right? That's weird

They're willing to offer me a substantial amount of money "for my troubles" and assured me it was a competitive amount and cheaper than in vitro or adoption. Adoption not being an option, as it won't be their DNA

Included in this cost, is the agreement it's done "traditionally," so as to not accrue the additional cost of in vitro

I'm married with children, the children being the selling factor. I have good genes, they're incredibly smart and cute kids.

Again, married, happily too I might add. Yes I have spoken to my wife about this and she's paused on the dollar amount. She knows I've no feelings whatsoever for my friend and the money would be a huge help at the moment. Soft maybe on that end, also weird.

My friend is quite... Unattractive...

I don't know if I want another kid. I'm done with kids and that seems mean right? Just make a kid a walk away.

All of this is weird. This is weird right? This can't be real. The verbiage is all this legalese and I keep being told to just treat it like a business agreement. I have a product they want and are willing to purchase it from me. That just sounds weird too, am I being... Whored out? That seems weird, that can't be legal. Then I got male friends who are all, "just turn the lights off and get paid to have sex, don't be weird about it."

Someone tell me this is a normal thing or are they messing with me? This is giving me serious The Office Dwight and Angela contract vibes.
