Yeah, so you’re a family business. But oh no, little nephew didn’t want to come on board! So what do you do? You place an ad, and end up hiring my brother, from 1000 miles away, who’s trying to get his family out of a bad situation and get a new start in a new city.
So he uproots them based on your job description, and your interviews. Then comes the first strike against you – you’re in a hurry to have him start (since you were so shocked by the nephew’s decision) so he doesn’t have time to househunt. “No problem,” you say, “I’ll find you something.” Yeah, you found him a shithole place next to a crackhouse where the floors run at a 10 degree angle and the local kids are 12-year-olds who try to initiate my niece into their sex club. Fucking great.
And then strike two. Turns out the job isn’t quite what you pitched it to my brother as. He’s a translator, you’re a translation company. But apparently you failed to mention to him that you were looking for an office manager because you and your wife are completely un-fucking-organized, not someone to help with the translations. So he’s got a job 1000 miles from ANY support that he didn’t really sign up to do. But he can do it, so he does, and even asks for MORE work so he can do what he wants, translations.
Last, ohhh this takes the cake. You convince your nephew to come on part-time, because you’ve hit a busy period … give HIM translation work instead of my brother (which is what you HIRED him for) … get my brother to train him “in case you get sick or move on in a few years” and then after only six months on the job, when the idiot nephew changes his mind, you fucking FIRE my brother all in the name of nepotism. Didn’t do anything wrong. Didn’t screw up. You just wanted to give your wishy-washy nephew the job. Of course, this was AFTER a three-week family-only vacation to Europe while my brother RAN the whole fucking place. Dandy. “Thanks for saving our ass, we woulda had to shut down if you werent here. As thanks, here’s ONE MONTH SEVERANCE, YOU’RE FIRED.”
So now my brother’s 1000 miles from all his family and friends, in a city where he knows NO ONE and has lived for all of six months – and one really without all that much in his field of work. Because this fucking family-run business used him to draw their nephew into the fold. Oh, with a wife and four kids to feed, not to mention get therapy for because of the aforementioned bad situation they were trying to get a new start away from.
Fuck you, fuck your nephew, and fuck any company that decides to give you their business. One giant cock fucking all of you all at once like a shishkabob. One big fuck-kabob for all of you bastards.
