I'm currently in a bit of a dilemma. I left my last job due to the toxic environment I was in. My cousin asked me if I would like to help out at her husband's startup, I took up the offer. Here comes the problem. My cousin, the world's laziest person and slob. My aunt and uncle spoiled the living sh*t out of her, thus she is how she is now. She's so lazy that she doesn't even bother to pay her medical bills, or anything, and expects someone else to pay it for her. Problem is who? For crying out loud, she can't even take care of her son, she bought all these how to raise a baby books and expects to get the answers from it, yet my Uncle and Aunt are doing the fulltime babysitting. She's going to have her 2nd child soon, and is not planning on taking care of the baby. Rather she is hiring a fulltime Nanny for the child and getting someone else to breast feed for her. Odd thing is, I don't even know how she graduated from Harvard. She has NEVER held a real job longer than 3 months. What my cousin didn't tell me was that her husband is already in the process of selling his startup, thus I'm excluded from going to the acquiring company. I only took up the offer to help out my cousin's husband. That's it. I'm planning to depart and look for a real jobm but my cousin "Assumes" that I'd be helping "her" out afterwards. I hate my skank of a cousin but I don't want to offend her husband. I'm thinking once the company gets sold, I'm adios. She's on her own. I find a person to be really low class and cheap when they take advantage of their family. Suggestions and Opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
god what a person... theres nothing you can do for her, in my view, if shes set in her ways, she will stay that way unless she suffers something big and bad to wake her up in the real world stay away from her...
for a person like her that graduated from such a good school probably she was so spoiled she got ppl to do her work for her why even bother helping her if you dont like her that much let her take up some respoinsibility for herself and her husband hell you dont even want to be his friend then hell with them
lol she so scandalous... she... so... scandalous.... -whistle hahah kdotc shes got a husband to fall back on... you ain't got ish... -rotfl
So did she told you you might get a chance to acquire the company? If yes, she'd lied to you if it turns out her husband is already in the process selling his business. In that case, sorry for that husband but don't let them walk over you. If not, well, you can always say you've changed your mind, got a better job offer or something like that. You haven't signed a contract after all, do you? My personal view is to stay out of relatives businesses as it can give you a lot of troubles. (esp. if you have crazy, lazy and or greedy relatives)
I found out that the company was in the process of being acquired after I started as a contractor, thus nothing to sign. The only reason I bothered to help out is that her husband is a good guy. Yeah, I know about the complexity of being associated with family related businesses. The signing should be soon...
like what taxloss said seperate family and personal life: in the sense that you don't want to become too involved in your family's businesses, etc. i have a friend who works for a relative and sometimes that relative makes outrageous demands and thinks he has the right to because they're related.
talk to her husband about your plans, it sounds like he would understand. this is your life, you have to take control! tell her that you will be taking a new "professional job" and you will not be able to help her...
Guess she's a person that was born with a "Golden Key" haha! born to live lazy with money! scandalous.....
It's not possible for someone who is that lazy to be graduated from Harvard unless someone did all the works for her.
Funny enough, my older sis sounds abit like your cousin...She is so lazy, I cant stand her nonsense.<_<
Yeah she now knows that I'm irritated with her antics. I talked to her husband and he knows how I feel about her antics and that I'm only going to help him finish this thing, and not help my cousin with her junk.
