Working for family in retirement

Hi

I work in a close family members business . What started as a nice little job for PT 3 hrs - on 4 days / week has turned into nearly FT. The job is very hard mentally and I'm just not enjoying it. It takes up all my time when I could be doing other things - and I worry about the business finances all the time, especially as it isn't doing well atm.

Should I come clean and just say enough is enough I don't want to do this anymore - or stick it out a bit longer in case it improves ? I am really torn - am I letting someone down by getting out ?

Just wondering how you are doing Nannimo

Hoping you have made some changes - and if not, Easter isn't far away... and might be a good time 🤞
