Good morning folks.
I have worked for different family owned businesses all my life. Just 4 different places but there is never ever the slightest doubt on who to talk to if there is a problem. I just go straight to the boss-owner. Heck I have never really had to deal with a manager. The boss's wife at my second job was trying to tell me how to do my job one day and she was FOS and just plain wrong about her way to do a task. I went right to the boss and asked him the direct question, who is in charge? He stated clearly he was the boss and to come to him if there is a problem. He then said do it the right way and "ignore my wife" and I took that to heart. I did not acknowledge existence her unless I had a direct need to discuss something with her. And that was usually to tell her we were almost out of paper towels or coffee.
Never needed to get any lawyers involved. Never had to schedule a meeting with a manager or write letters. That is the advantage of a family business, the disadvantages are many and varied.
