How do I tell my dad, who is my boss, that I am quitting and I found another job?? |
I have worked for my familys business for 4 years now and i found another great job that pays better, has better benefits, and everything. my dad is my boss and i have NO IDEA how i am going to tell him that i found another job!! I don't want to make him feel disapointed!! i need some advice!!! just tell him that you love him and you like working there but you want to expand your horizons and check out new opportunities that it is nothing personal but you found something else and that you want to try it adn your job will probably still be there if you dont like the new one and besides the break may do you good, good luck and take tare!Say it like it's nothing. Let your Dad know you had another opportunity and would like to learn from others in addition to all that he and the family business has taught to you; It is time for you to learn differently and in due time you will probably be back a much more rounded person appreciating your family business all the more. Make sure the other job is a sure thing. Tell your dad that you love him very much, and that as much as you enjoy working in the family business it's time for you to move on. Since he IS a businessman himself, he should understand and want a better opportunity for you. If you would prefer to work for the other company then explain to him exactly why you are leaving. Another way is you tell him that you need to strike out on your own and not live under the shelter of the family ties. If he needs your help and can't find anyone else to fill in, then you have a loyalty issue to think about. well, you probably should have let him know you were thinking of expanding on what you've learned working for him, but since you can't go back in time - take that thought forward. Tell him you found a great job and you are really excited about branching out and showing what a great work ethic and experience working for him has given you. It's now time to spread your wings and broaden your horizons. Tell him that you are going to try to make a go of it, but if it's not as great a work environment as he has provided, you might be back... it's not like you can ever completely cut the cord - he's still dad and you'll always be close (i hope!) good luck - you really do need to stretch those wings and there's nothing wrong with wanting a better paying job! |
