When Blood and Business Mix: The Double-Edged Sword of Working with Family
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The delicate dance between family ties and business expectations takes center stage in this thought-provoking episode inspired by recent news about Tyler Perry's workplace confrontation with his aunt. We dive deep into the question: is working with family a blessing or a burden?
On one hand, offering employment to relatives provides valuable opportunities to help those closest to you succeed financially. There's also the benefit of surrounding yourself with people you trust and care about. But what happens when those family connections create complications in the professional realm?
We explore the challenges of maintaining professional standards with relatives who might expect special treatment. Through a revealing role-play scenario, we tackle the uncomfortable reality of having to terminate a family member who violates workplace trust—and how that decision can ripple through holiday gatherings and family reunions for years to come.
The conversation takes an unexpected turn when we debate the ethics of "borrowing" from the workplace. From innocent pen-snatching to more substantial theft, we examine where different people draw the line and how these seemingly minor indiscretions can impact business operations.
Whether you're a small business owner considering bringing relatives onboard, an employee working alongside family, or simply curious about the psychology behind workplace ethics, this episode offers valuable insights into navigating the complex intersection of personal and professional relationships.

Speaker 1But , as always , we're all in your biz and we got some more business for you .
Speaker 2We need to get in your business All in your business . So I was listening to the radio and I heard that there was a confrontation with Tyler Perry and , I think , his aunt . He had hired her and she was allegedly working for him and then stopped showing up for work or showed up late or , I guess wasn't doing what she was hired to do allegedly . Gotta put that out there . So my question for this week is is it a blessing or a burden to work with family ?
Speaker 1What do you think ? Uh-oh , yeah , uh-oh .
Speaker 2Because you know , family is not chosen .
Speaker 1Right .
Speaker 2It's who and what you're given . So you know you have the option to work with family or not . So there's some pros and cons with everything .
Speaker 1So let's talk about that .
Speaker 2I'm sure this is it depends now .
Speaker 1It depends . So what do you think ? I think so . Let me start off with the blessings . How about that ?
Speaker 2Blessings .
Speaker 1I think it's a blessing . You , you know , if you are in a position because you'll be able to give , you know , okay , you'll be able to give to you to your family .
Speaker 2You mean give employment , you know , an opportunity put food on people's table , you know .
Speaker 1Put money in people's pocket , just you know . I think that's a blessing if you're in a position to be , is it a ?
Speaker 2blessing if it's like a i'ma pay you under the table ? No , no , be able to do it . Is it a blessing if it's like a I'm going to pay you under the table type thing ? No , no , no .
Speaker 1I mean if it's under the table or if it's legit with a whiskey .
Speaker 2Nine and you get a W-2, .
Speaker 1Either way , it's still a foreign opportunity . So I think that's a blessing . I think it's , you know , it's also a blessing because you have your family around . They can be closer to you , because you can see them every day or however often your business is open .
Speaker 2Would you like that ? Would you like to be around ?
Speaker 1Yeah , that'd be cool with most family members and all Some of them . I'll let them work one day and see them in a couple of weeks .
Speaker 2Or they'll work in the other building .
Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2Maybe twins would like to work together . Do you think ? If you're a twin , send us an email and let us know if you would like to work with your twin , whether it's fraternal or identical . Let us know if you all would like to work together . Yeah , so it could be a blessing . Yeah , okay .
Speaker 1Before we go a little bit further , would you like to work with me ?
Speaker 2No , I don't like working with you .
Speaker 1Listen , we may need to cut this whole podcast right now .
Speaker 2Honestly , you do great work .
Speaker 1Oh , thank you baby , Thank you you act like you're everybody .
Speaker 2Now don't mess it up . No , no , no . I'm going to just tell you why I don't like to work with you .
Speaker 1We live baby , we live .
Speaker 2You act as if you're everybody's supervisor and you're not mine . Like you come and you're in my business , you're in your business , you're supervising and managing everybody and nobody likes that , like nobody likes a micromanaging . So do I like working , I like the end result . I think we work great as a collaborative team , but just not together .
Speaker 1Listen .
Speaker 2I want to be in
Setting Work Expectations for Family
Speaker 2the same building , you in . No , I don't , we're going to work it out . I am a loner . I like to work as an individual . I don't care for teamwork . I I'll do it , but it's not my thing . So I like to be productive in my own right , and then we come together and have a finished product that's me I'm glad you told me that .
Speaker 1I didn't know that you felt that way every time .
Speaker 2Yeah , no , it's there's no secret .
Speaker 1Well , I would love to work with you , okay , okay , it'd be a lot of kissing and you know , stuff like that going on no , because when I'm on the job , when I'm working , that's what I'm doing . When you're on the job . Listen . When you're on the job , we together , we on the job .
Speaker 2No , we get things done , we're going to talk about this later . Next topic Go ahead . We're going to talk about this later .
Speaker 1So it'll be good to see family that you haven't seen in a while . However , then they um come to the job and you see them on a regular basis , so that can be a blessing , okay , um , now the downside about this ? Okay , the downside about this is not everybody does not have the same work ethics , so it may be a problem . Maybe , working with me now , I'm gonna just put the task out there and then I expect even family members to make it happen , just like if it was somebody random off the street .
Speaker 2You know , because at the end of the day I know that's your favorite word- hey , if you say at the end of the day I completely turn off , at the end of the day it's still a business , right ?
Speaker 1yeah , so if we didn't have the business then we wouldn't have an opportunity to , you know , to have family come and work . So you got to keep okay you know the work ethics . You got to keep the standards . You got to hold family members even to the same bar . I mean , you may give them an extra chance or two and all , but you can't just let family members show up when they want to .
Speaker 2Let me ask you do you think a family member would like to work with you or for you ? Do you think any of your family members would ?
Speaker 1I mean sure .
Speaker 2Okay .
Speaker 1You know . But I'm going to tell you this right now out the gate . That business is sure , Okay , but I'm going to tell you this right now out the gate , that business is business .
Speaker 2Okay , so what are your expectations ?
Speaker 1My expectation is the same thing or the same expectations that I put out again . I compare to somebody random off the street .
Speaker 2Okay and my family Okay . So if they say , hey , being on time , you know how I am about being on time .
Speaker 1Stop and get me a little bit no make , uh , okay well , you can stay there and see if they they make hiring okay I gotta get me a little bacon , egg and cheese . No , and that's why I think the rules have to be set for okay at the beginning what about a coffee like no , no , no need to get coffee 8 o'clock . If we start at 8 o'clock then you may want to be there at 7.50 .
Speaker 2But am I getting paid for those extra 10 minutes ? You're not .
Speaker 1Because if you late at 8.01 , I'm pissed .
Speaker 2Okay .
Speaker 1Because time is money . It's better to be pissed off than pissed off , okay Well , and I will cut not only people off the street off , but I'll put family members to the side . You know , listen , we'll have a one-on-one talk and say , hey , I need you here at this time because this will time business start rolling , you know like . And then we we do that way because the people that are not family members , they looking , yeah that's true , you know I'm saying then they're gonna start doing it before you know .
Speaker 2No , man , man , man , listen this . No , I'm saying I don . They're going to start doing it before you know it .
Speaker 1Nah , man , man , man , Listen , listen , listen .
Speaker 2No , I'm saying I don't think this my bacon was in the air fryer , I had to take my shower . I had to do my edges . I had to iron my shirt .
Speaker 1My shirt was dirty , no now I may have some leniency . You know , along the way You're doing your job , you know like my niece , you know like you can say like my cousin's sick or something like that . You know I get it , but don't you know .
Speaker 2But don't make it a habit of showing up late , don't ?
Speaker 1make it a habit . I mean , what do you say ? You're going to just let your girls come in , whatever it is , because y'all cool and they're going to do whatever . How do you feel about that ?
Speaker 2No , I think there should be an expectation for everyone , you know . I don't even think if I'm related to someone that I , that works for me . I don't even want anyone to know , like if they ? If they don't know that , they don't need to know , because I want to set the same same standard for everyone .
Speaker 1What if everybody knows that ?
Speaker 2if everyone still knows and then I still have to hold them accountable to the same standard . It has to probably even be higher .
How to Fire a Family Member
Speaker 2Because you're my relative does not mean that you can show up late , doesn't ? Mean that you can't be professional Does not mean that you don't meet your quota . Doesn't mean that you leave early or you take an extra smoke breaks and things of that nature .
Speaker 1So no , Would you let them go ?
Speaker 2Yes , I have no problem Because business is money .
Speaker 1Yeah , you're right , you're right you're right , and then it's just , and then , when you think about it , it'll be good to be in a place where you can offer you know , like people jobs , especially family members , but you also have to think that this could start some bad blood right , I have a proverb because no one wins no one wins when the family feuds nobody .
Speaker 2Yeah and yeah , that could be some tension . I saw on a couple of uh , reality shows where a family member worked for someone and they got fired because they weren't , you know , living up to the standard . They wasn't , they weren't showing up on time , production was low , and then they got mad when they got fired . But the owner didn't know how to fire this person because they felt bad because it was a family member let's talk about it .
Speaker 1Do you so ? How would you fire them ?
Speaker 2I don't , honestly . I don't think there is a family member that would work for me to be honest if you had a family , just if you had a family right . If I had , would you ?
Speaker 2call them offline , or would you be a in the store or wherever you say yeah , I would never I don't think I would fire someone in front of people , unless it was like something , a situation where it had to be handled right there . I would pull them to the side respectfully and let them know the reason respectfully , and let them know the reason and let them know that they're being terminated .
Speaker 2And I would pay them for that day , unless there was a situation where somebody's in there stealing , fighting , smoking , cussing out someone . Then it's like , hey , we need to go to the bat right now . That type of situation . Or just say , hey , you have to go Like it's not working . If it were that type of situation , I would do that , yes .
Speaker 1Okay , so would you ? Okay , so would you give them a little bit more leniency than someone that was not your family , that worked at your business ?
Speaker 2Would I give a family member more leniency than my non-family ? It ? Just depends , because sometimes you can have a great employee that's not related to you and it's like I understand your situation .
Speaker 2You're a single mom , you're a single dad , you have a sick child . You're sick . You know situations as such that I would take into consideration if they do great work . There's always exceptions , you know when things are favorable , but I would also let them know like , hey , you know do your best or you know we'll figure something out , but I need to know if I'm not in the know . And you know they show up 20 minutes late or they don't show up .
Speaker 2That no show , no call , no show thing . No , because I think that's respectful . Like that no show , no call , no show thing . No , Because I think that's that's respectful , Like let someone know if you're not going to be able to make it . That way , we know how to to move around and we can replace you or we can , you know , have someone else work in that spot . But if you just choose not not to call , then just choose not to show up the next day .
Speaker 1Wow , but I can imagine it can get a little bit deep . Yeah , if especially if they're , if it's family members and say , for instance , it was your brother right and you and you know he got kids which are your nieces , your nephews , and then , if you let him go , you know that's going to affect their auntie rica .
Speaker 2Because of you we didn't have christmas , so thanks . I mean , can you imagine like you fire someone and then you're at the , the picnic , or you're at the family reunion or christmas or thanksgiving , and everybody's looking at you like you ruined christmas , you know ? You look at me however you want I said , but it's a but , it's a business , it is , it's at the end of the day that go your favorite word it's still a business .
Speaker 1I get it , you know , and it's almost disrespectful to have a family member work for you .
Speaker 2And then it's like they kind of play you to play you to the right , taking advantage of exactly because we're relatives , yeah no , you don't do that , you know so the the penalties will be steep if you're stealing you know being dishonest and stuff like that .
Speaker 1That mean you stealing from me yeah the business yeah you know . So I'm gonna fire you and bang you just like anybody off the street and it may be even harsh like I don't want you at all .
Speaker 2Yeah , I can't if you , if you're stealing from me , oh , that's the worst okay , because that's a trust . That's a huge trust huge .
Speaker 1Yeah , but how can you tell me this ? Give me an example of how could you find a family member . Tell me a short little conversation like what would you say ?
Speaker 2okay , so let me say so , let me be your cousin .
Speaker 1You could be my cousin , tron , yeah I'm gonna be the cousin , so my name is tron just call me at the office here , call me the office tron , can I ?
Speaker 2I need to see you in the office now harika .
Speaker 1What's up , what's up , what's up tron um how you doing today girl , I'm cool , you know , like how's everybody doing , how my niece doing .
Speaker 2She's good . She's good , is your stomach full , you full today .
Speaker 1Yeah , I'm good . You know . She said I stopped and got me something to eat before I came to work and everything you know . You want a biscuit . I got an extra biscuit in there .
Speaker 2I'm okay , I like them shoes .
Speaker 1Those are . Those are nice . Yeah , I got these yesterday .
Speaker 2You know how your mama doing yeah , she good , how your mama doing she good , that's her new purse . I saw you post her new purse . Yeah , she liked it , she , she was she loving that purse . I tell you that's what's up . So , um , no , what's up . Oh yeah , so , um , the cable . Um , the cable bill came in today and I happened to just look at some some video footage of the warehouse and you know , just checking things out and I see trying , like what is our policy on backpacks in the warehouse ? Oh , you're talking about me . Yeah , the Jordan backpack that you got that red one .
Speaker 2Yeah , you know , like you know like what is the policy ? Or you don't have to tell me , I'll tell you . The policy is that you don't have to tell me , I'll tell you . The policy is that you don't bring your backpacks into the warehouse .
Speaker 1We have lockers before we come into the warehouse Because you tripping , no , no , no , because this is little Ronnie's boot bag , because we was late for school and I just , you know , just brought it in . Were you doing ?
Speaker 2homework . It's your nephew's backpack . I understand , but you were carrying his backpack and the policy is no backpack , so let me just share with you what I saw . I saw your backpack being unzipped and some product put into your backpack and then you clocked out . And then I saw on your social media that you were selling wigs , bundles and iPhones . Yeah , so you , and iPhones . Yeah , so you had a sale . Yeah , you had a Juneteenth sale on wigs , wigs and bundles .
Speaker 1I'm sorry . I'm sorry too . It's not what it looked like . I'm sorry too .
Speaker 2So what it looks like is inventory is down , it's not accounted for , so you know how I feel about stealing . If you would have needed anything you could have asked for extra hours . It's 3 o'clock .
Speaker 1You know , I got that birthday party coming up .
Speaker 2I understand them bundles and them wigs and those iPhones . You may want to sell those . I'm going to have to let you go , tron . It's just not working .
Speaker 1Riga . Are you serious ?
Speaker 2I'm serious have to let you go Tron , it's just not working are you serious ? You can let me , I'm serious as as we family we are , and that's why I'm letting you go . Have a good day .
Speaker 1Thanks , tron well , that was a a hearty way of getting rid of somebody it was straight to the point .
Speaker 2We don't need to beat around the bush we saw it , it's on video now you don't want .
Speaker 1Do you want that them products to come back ?
Speaker 2no , that's his birthday , the birthday party money
Office Supply Theft: Where's the Line?
Speaker 2. He . He needs to work really hard to sell those those items , like he'd work really hard to bring nephew's backpack in to steal them but you see how that can start easily so now y'all got that family reunion coming up , so do you still talk to the family member the same way now if he don't say nothing ?
Speaker 2then that's okay . You , I mean , how is it fair for him to be upset with me if he stole from me and I'll let him go ? It's not it's not so . If he chooses not to speak , that's on him , you're not .
Speaker 1So I think the penalty it has to be maybe even a little bit tougher .
Speaker 2What would you do ?
Speaker 1I would , I would , I would do it the same way .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1You know , I would have said it the same way .
Speaker 2It's disrespectful , I would have .
Speaker 1When he came in , I would have called him in and had the video playing .
Speaker 2Like hey , have a seat . Well , let's watch this , let's watch it .
Speaker 1Hey , kick up a seat . Let me show you this .
Speaker 2It's called Tron Steals .
Speaker 1Exactly yeah , because I think that's disrespectful to the next level .
Speaker 2Because then if you do that , if he did that , then it'll be more .
Speaker 1There'll be a next time .
Speaker 2Yep , you know , and then it's like it won't stop .
Speaker 1No , it won't . It won't , yeah , so I agree , I think we agree on that .
Speaker 2No , so there you have it , it's not easy , but it's like you have to do what you have to do because that's costing you money . So you stole something and you getting paid for the day .
Speaker 1Exactly , you're winning . You double , you got to double up . Yeah , you got to double up . Now would you hire this family member back ?
Speaker 2No .
Speaker 1So is it a wrap .
Speaker 2Yeah , it's done . We've had our experience together . You know I wish him well somewhere else .
Speaker 1Now what if your auntie called you ? I'll tell her the same thing .
Speaker 2If Tron wants to steal from you , auntie , that's between you and Tron .
Speaker 1But as for me and my warehouse .
Speaker 2we will not deal with Tron . Yes , Wow .
Speaker 1Yeah , okay , okay .
Speaker 2I feel that Trust is key .
Speaker 1So that was pretty easy , then that was pretty easy then so to all my family members out there . Just know that I love you and all but business is business . Business is business , you know . So I don't want you to steal from not only me , but you're stealing from the business . Yeah , you , you just steal from not only me but you're stealing from the business . Yeah , you know . So that's , that's a double . A double negative , okay , and it's not a positive . So let me ask you .
Speaker 2let's talk about stealing from work . So uh , is it petty like a petty crime If you're stealing like pins and and uh , sticky pads and highlighters and stuff that's ?
Speaker 1petty .
Speaker 2Your kids have them in their backpacks for back to school , like that kind of stuff . Is that normal thievery ? Or if you're stealing a rim of copy paper and taking it to the house .
Speaker 1So you're trying to say does it have levels ?
Speaker 2Yeah , Is there levels to the office supplies that you could steal ? Now I know people steal chairs um telephones fax machines yeah , big stuff like that . But let's talk about like the stuff that uh , or even hoarding . I know that people hoard like copy paper , staplers , pins and highlighters because they just don't want to run out , and then you know it takes some time for the supply cabinet to be replenished . So what do you think about that ?
Speaker 1Okay , so how about you answer ? I'm asking you , asking me a question . I'm going to give it right back to you .
Speaker 2Oh , you don't want to answer it . No , I'm just saying it's your business . Okay , what you wanted to , I'm going to give it right back to you . Oh , you don't want to answer it . No , I'm just saying it's your business , okay , what you wanted to steal it ?
Speaker 1No , what I'm saying if it's your business , okay , and you're buying these supplies , and would it matter to you if it was just pens , papers factories ?
Speaker 2Yeah , because then I still have to reorder that stuff , no matter what it was .
Speaker 1you may think it's petty , but it still come out of your inventory somewhere I see that's why the supply closet is locked often , so you know that's my . That's the answer . Yes , I would be .
Speaker 2I would be ticked so what if you saw ? If you pass somebody's desk and you saw like two packs of copy paper ?
Speaker 1in their backpack when they come back . It's gonna be one and none , because I won't put it back in the closet .
Speaker 1It's still like copy paper is expensive get expensive yeah , you know uh fax machines missing all this stuff , toner's missing computer keyboards . You know I'm like you didn't build the whole system at the house . So yeah , I have a problem with that . If it's my business , it can be . If , listen , you supposed to have one pair of scissors and I see like three or four , you know I got a problem you have a problem , because what are you cutting that you need ain't cutting nothing , you know you going home doing projects for your kids and everything off my supplies .
Speaker 2No don't get high , it ain't gonna happen okay you know toilet paper going .
Speaker 1Whatever , I know we ain't running through all this toilet paper I do know people that have stolen has it been you ?
Speaker 2no , no , no . I like a certain type of toilet paper , so okay , they had your type that office . Let me see if they had . Let me see what I would possibly take from the office .
Speaker 1Let me think hold on .
Speaker 2Let me think now , if there's some good pens , instead of me me taking two , I may take a box , okay , and keep it in my desk because I like a good pen . Let me see what else would I take . Maybe some highlighters ? Yeah , I like some highlighters . You know what ?
Speaker 1You would take some like no , you know what I really like those Like paper clips . No , no , I really like those like paper clips ?
Speaker 2no , because I . No , I like those rubber fingers , the ones that you stick on your finger when you flip them through pages .
Speaker 1I do like those I say that'd be like the petty stuff like you'd be taking , like the little mouse . Look , uh the mouse , little pads .
Speaker 2No , I buy my own because I want my stuff to to match , but I will have a drawer full of those , uh , rubber fingers and certain color rubber fingers yeah , so you can kind of , you know , sort through papers real fast no that's gross , but that rubber finger has a good grip , so you can you ever get paper for me and it got like a little wet spotted .
