'I'm tired of his lack of commitment': Retired man gives family business to struggling son, then fires him for entitled behavior and takes it back
They say you should never mix family and business, and this story might just be the perfect example of why. After his son struggled to find work due to a legal incident 15 years ago, a retired father stepped in to help. He hired his son at the family business, hoping to set him up for success. The father, now 74 and mostly retired, still enjoys working occasionally and earns a commission for his efforts. But things have taken a turn.
The son, now running the business, has started withholding his father's commission, claiming the old man is spending too much on his new house and wife. Instead of showing gratitude, the son's entitled attitude has put the business in jeopardy. So what does dad do? He steps back in, takes the company back, and fires his own son.
It's easy to think the son's ultimately at fault, but the father may not be entirely innocent in all of this either. Curious how this family drama unfolded? Keep reading to find out why this father-son business went from bad to worse.
