I guess you might don't understand what TS trying to say. more over trying to use accountant to compare? this is just an odd scene.
and your reply is totally irrelevant at all....


btw, why not we come out a list of a company that being so much ridiculous?
pour all jobs loads etc to a designer etc, i guess is suck, but all these is pretty common in designer scene.
but what i feel like boycott those company that being srsly ridiculous like what TS mention on his 2nd point


as for 3rd point... nothing to whine about.. i know it suck, but... well... not until the extend to boycott imo.

for the 1st point...

I dont see what's the big deal is that.
I do understand this may affect your decision to join or not when in the interview.
but i guess so does the boss...
that's why she just hid it.
perfectly common.

no.
im not trying to justify how family business is not a big deal...
now im talking about boycotting sucky company. just to give designer to be aware of what sort of company that will force u work for them til puke blood and you only get peanuts, always cut ur salary, always make u feel guilty for no reason, etc etc....


what im trying to say is that, we shouldnt boycott a company just solely becoz they are family business...
there are family with reasonable and understanding people in it, and there are family with retarded attitude and thinking in it.
ultimately it is base on what sort of family people u join their company.

now you tell me that you wont let ur designer work like f*** and get peanuts and always cut their salary. does that mean when your sibling join venture into you, and that would make you change your way of treating staff into always cut ur staff salary?
i guess the answer is no.


to say boycott a company just solely becoz they are family business, i see it very wrong.
they might be a very good and well understanding people in that family.
for matter of fact, my previous company is sort of family business too. husband and wife, and later stage when i left, the wife sister came in help in accounting.
honestly, there are shits inside, but not until the extend to boycott. they still pay salary on time, they giv you OT money, weekend i nvr see a single staff came into work. once a while staff will OT late, but not always. rarely in fact... but the bonuses is kinda crappy... split into 2 times. the lady boss is.... double face kind of person.... and etc management things. but overall not until the extend to boycott just solely becoz they are family business. each company has pro and cons...

I certainly dont think there will be any problem if in the future i asked my brother to join venture with me. i understand what designers hate as i been thru there.
but as for asking wife to join venture... that i gotto think twice.

to sum up... most family business might really create problems like david said here... but definitely not all.

PS: don get me wrong, im still working for people and not yet marry.
