Asked by bluemnky1
My dad is a store manager at a grocery store, i've just started working with him. We are also in the process of regaining a better relationship with each other. Everytime i come in to work, i get lectured about how i didn't do something right and how i should act more responsible. He makes me do the crappiest jobs there is too do. the jobs that the janitor has to do. When i ask him why he says, because we may get busy and you could do this to help out, then he says end of disussion. Now your probley. wondering why i haven't quit yet, i'm really about too, but i need the money and it's close to my school. do i just got along and pretend to like the jobs he's giving me and be treated like that or do i quit. It's not like i'm a kid. i'm 18 i'm in college.

Best Answer:
I would quit and look for another job. He is treating you like that because he doesn't want other employees to say he gives you special treatments. Working for or with family members is not a good thing. There never be a fair treatment (it will only be good or bad).

well first of all why dont u talk to him and tell him what you DONT like. tell him how u want to be treated. key point: DO NOT YELL OR GET MAD AT EACH OTHER simple talks can build u r relationship with u r dad much stronger than quitting. hang in there...

Proud and traditional dads are often a pain in the butt. But he loves you and he'd like to see you hang in there enough. He may want you to experience all that he has been through to bring you up and let you know that what he does isn't all that easy. So maybe you could appreciate and work harder so he knows that he has brought you up right. Quiting now would dissapoint him, working through it and winning him over would be a great experience for you and a good bond for the two.

He's trying to teach you a lesson - learn it. Life is hard, work is hard, and respect is EARNED. Just because you're a Rockefeller, doesn't mean you get to walk into the company as the vice president. Those titles are given to those who are deserving, not to those with the right name. (in a perfect world anyway) You need to know that you will not get anywhere in this world without first putting forth the effort to show you have the ambition and ethic to perform the tasks that come with the job. By quitting you are proving nothing to him, other than that you are less of a man than he anticipated. Show him that you can endure the rain to get to the rainbow. After say, 6 months to a year, if you are still pushing around a broom, and haven't been given better duties, I would speak with him on a business level. Sell yourself to him, as any other employee would do, and see what comes of it. If you don't move up, then consider finding another job. Don't quit until you have somewhere else to work. Also, by giving you the worst jobs, he is trying to show the other employees that he does not favor you.
