Who here works with family? How do you deal with it? I have no serious problem managing non family employees but family members just refuse to follow even the most common sense instructions.

Is this a symptom of an underlying issue? It could be their way to irritate you or get back at you for something they are unhappy about.Who here works with family? How do you deal with it?

Now I use to work with my Father, and he was great.
I got married to a farmers daughter and she is fantastic.
But, now when things are not going well on the farm, maybe slug issues, blackgrass issues, I get it in the neck from her. I can handle my own mistakes, try to remedy them, or not repeat them another year, but she is very aware of the bottom line, and constantly brings up these issues, which does hit me hard sometimes, trying to constantly explain what went wrong.
Father has passed away, so it is now just me and my wife and the children.
It's difficult though, it's my wife, and a fantastic woman, just this one niggle really.That's difficult, when you finish work you need to be able to switch off. Get her involved in the agronomy meetings?
It is the little things that make the difference, I can't imagine anyone getting concerned about slugs and BG to the extent that it starts to affect a relatonship.It's difficult though, it's my wife, and a fantastic woman, just this one niggle really.
I do try to get agronomist here at half terms etc, as she helps at school, so she can quiz him, but I know the inquisition is on my shoulder.
Still it's good to talk !
