TIL why doing business with your dad sometimes leads to funny situations - Family out-takes #2
Dedicated to my closest adviser, best friend and funniest person on Earth: my father.
Out-takes #2: Top 3 business situations
During the last months I was documenting several dialogs I had with my father. I only shared them with my inner circle which means: other family members and my best friends. But then I thought they could be a nice input for steemit´s #funny section.
The first outtakes concerning 'relationships' were published in my article Top 3 dating advices.
You should know that I have an excellent relationship with my father. He´s 65 years old but most of the time it seems like he´s not much older than me! We are on the same wave lenght and mainly do have exactly the same sense of humor: ironic, sometimes sarcastic and.... ruthless :-)
Here we go these are my top 3 favourite quotes regarding: business.
No. 1 DRUGS
Dad checking the latest sales revenues, being quite content.
Dad: This has been our best November ever in the history of the company.
Marly: Oh wow, that´s awesome daddy! We should organize a huge party and celebrate that.
Dad: I agree. We should do one of these parties like Leonardo DiCaprio in 'The Wolf of Walstreet'. The only thing I am not really sure about is if I should start consuming cocain at an age of 65.
No. 2 NAP
Marly entering the building through the entrance hall where she finds her dad lying on the sofa.
Marly: Dad, what are you doing here at 11am?
Dad: Having a nap. I am like 'The mentalist': I do have my most inspiring moments when hanging around and chilling.
No. 3 COFFEE
Marly starting her day in the office, checking the first emails, dad coming along.
Dad: Everything fine, sweetie?
Marly: Yeah dad, everything cool. But you could bring me a coffee actually.
Dad: (laughing) I am your boss!
Marly: You are totally right. I always wanted to say that to one of my bosses and look what happens.
There is nothing more appreciated than a naturally comfortable work environment. Being relaxed and having fun even makes you more efficient. And the very best thing about working with my dad: I can go surfing whenever a good swell comes along - flexibility rules! :-)

Cheers & live your dream,
