My 2nd cousin offered to hire me to work for him.

Is this a bad idea? I hear horror stories of how it leads to conflict in the family and that we never should do business with family. What is the issue with working with family? I don’t really understand why its a problem.

Is the fear that we will fight at family gatherings and lead to unhappiness if it doesn’t work out?


What do you guys think? Would you ever work for your family members?

As long as you get along okay with your second cousin, I see no problem here. It's only an issue if you're constantly butting heads with your family. If I didn't have a job and was offered one, I wouldn't think twice about accepting it.

Thanks for sharing your input. I don’t think its an issue either. I am curious why people make this a big problem

I would not work for family. They take advantage and expect more from you - this is coming from years of seeing my own family do this to eachother…
