That's hysterical. I am Appalachian/Irish, yes I know poverty. We've met. 
Taking this job could cost her the ability to ever work in this field again. Unemployable is no solution to poverty.
She'd do better taking as many kids as she can legally in her own home until she finds something or interviewing with a temp company. Temp companies are fantastic for building resume's and letting you "try out" different fields. They are also always hiring immediately.
I know right... Appalachian Irish here too... and I raised my kids as a single mom, so I know poverty well. I've been in and out of half of my life now. I just hope she really thinks it thru before taking a job that might hurt her in the end
