A: What a surprise! Linda will start working for Jerry’s law firm next week. I thought her feud with Jerry would last forever.

B: She had always said she wouldn’t be seen dead working for that company, but I guess everyone has their price.

Note: If you say that you wouldn’t be seen dead or wouldn’t be caught dead in particular clothes, places or situations, you are emphasizing that you strongly dislike or disapprove of them. This saying is similar to another we taught before: over one’s dead body. The literal meaning is “one would rather be dead than do something in discussion.”
