AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

I quit my job after 8 years. However there are still some aspects of the job for which I am responsible. The company has committed to me to remunerate for the work that I will do staying out of the system. However I think if they are irresponsible enough not to hire some one to replace me, why should I be involved. Moreover since the owners don’t care about their company and not hiring some one, why should I be emotionally involved and not move on. The only reason I agreed to do some work is my healthy relationship with my immediate boss. Please advise if I should continue helping them or not🙄.

Your decision to help or not to help should not be based on the owner’s approach towards the company but on factors personal to you. What you need to see is whether you have the time and the bandwidth to help, given your commitments and responsibilities with the new work you would have undertaken. That should be your priority now as well as the family.  Generally it is difficult to manage two jobs even if from home. Perhaps it may be best for you to communicate your limitations of time and provide some conditional help for a couple of months while they look for an alternative. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

My niece who is 12 yrs old doesn’t like sharing😥. If she takes her favorite food to school and her friends ask her to share, she doesn’t give or gives a very small piece. If by chance she happens to share a chocolate with girls she doesn’t like, she wants to snatch it away. She is attached to Krishna, and only thing that pacifies her is when we tell her that Krishna likes if she shares what He has given her. She says “I know it’s bad, i know it’s a devil that says this, but I can’t overpower it. It tells me that those girls did bad and said bad things about you, instead of that you shared your things, now you go steal something from them. Or I keep thinking what will I get if I give them”..[conti]
