Twitter user @catherynlavery recently tweeted this hot take on asking your friends to help you move:
As an adult, don’t ask your friends to help you move. Hire movers, save a friendship.
And the internet is, well, divided:
@cathrynlavery Shut up lol not everyone can afford movers and if the homies don’t mind helping then what’s the issue. If they didn’t want to help they would say no???
@seskis @cathrynlavery Like They ain’t asking for a kidney lol
However, some people totally agree with the original poster, @cathrynlavery, who followed up their tweet to clarify that "I mean movers for heavy furniture. Having friends for the packing / unpacking can be fun — but I'm not risking friends slipping a disc for my sectional couch. I understand movers can be unaffordable. I've been there. But if you *can* afford it, hire a pro."
@cathrynlavery The amount of resistance to this tweet is unreal. I get you. No one wants a slipped disc for a pizza and case of beer
