I'm amazed at your restraint from asking her a million nosy and inappropriate questions, starting with "What the hell is wrong with you?" and ending with "Your sister is a total bitch". That last one's not a question, but it still needs to be said. This IS a really fucked up family.

While we don't know all the dynamics of the relationship, but for most of us all we can feel is sadness for what apparently is an abusive situation. Perhaps acceptance of the situation by the sister is better term. I don’t think contentment is the word I would use.

One gets housekeeping services from someone who she trusts, the other gets a job within her comfort zone- her mean boss is her mean sister and I'm sure they love each other. If she isn't happy working for her bossy sister, then maybe she should suck it up and get a real job just like anyone else in the big bad world.

So sad (but then sometimes I get frustrated with people with no spines). Ugh! People! That just worked my stomach into knots.
