Why Working With Family Isn’t All It’s Cracked Up To Be

Ever thought working at the same company as your sibling would be a breeze? Think again. My sister and I worked at different branches, but when she got fired for standing up to management, it hit me harder than I expected. She called me right after, telling me not to do anything stupid that could mess up my own job. Honestly, I’m angry and frustrated, and the urge to speak out is real. But I know she’s right—sometimes you have to swallow your pride and play it safe, even when it feels unfair. If you’re considering working with family, let me be the first to warn you: it’s a minefield. Whether you’re arguing with each other or with the boss, it never ends well. Sometimes, keeping work and family separate is the best way to keep the peace. 😤🤷‍♂️ #FamilyAndWork #CareerAdvice #WorkplaceDrama #JobCareer
