English help: Do I use "doesn’t" or "don’t" here?

A daughter with sick parent or a employee with an annoying coworker doesn’t/don’t have much of a choice.

Can you please re-write this for me? Comma placement help too please. 🙂

Update:

Okay, thanks everyone! 😀

    No comma necessary. Use doesn’t because you are refering to more than one,

  • A daughter with sick parent or *an* employee with an annoying co-worker doesn’t have much of a choice.

  • Doesn’t because both of the subjects are singular. If it were daughters or employee, then it’s still doesn’t because employee is singular, and it’s closest to the verb. If it were daughter or employees, then it’s don’t because employees is plural and it’s closest to the verb. If it’s daughter and employee, then it’s don’t because it’s a compound subjects.
