I worked for over twenty years for my father. And I'm now wondering if what I thought was just the way things were there were that way only because I was the bosses daughter and they couldn't act the way they wanted to. I had thought after twentyfour years, things wouldn't have changed too much. And Daddy's been mostly retired for four years or so and things hadn't changed. But I get the distinct feeling they're flexing their boss muscles and putting me in my place. Having freedom and being trusted to do my work correctly were some of the very few upsides in what is an extraordinarily draining job that is very very bad for my health. People generally either thrive or crash and burn early. My father drank. The happiest I ever remember him was when I was working with him, because there was someone to share the load with. I was happier to have someone to share the load with too.
I'm going to create a resume. A very short one, I suppose. :) I don't know how long this will work.
