Depending on the pay, that's a nice little scam for someone.

When I was in my mid 20s, the only jobs nearby were basic retail work, and mostly part time. As you can probably imagine, the pay wasn't great. If remote work had been available then, I could see me being tempted to try this, even if it was just to tide me over for a while.

I'm the kind of person who hates not being able to do something, so I'd probably burn myself out trying to learn how to do the job in between working it, but it would still be tempting.
