The owner would always bring some "family" and "friends" into the company. About 30 people on the payroll never even showed up to work, let alone did anything productive for the company. In the three years I was there every six months or so would bring new"friend" a very attractive friend. Every once a while some of his previous "friends" would show up to say hi , in they new BMW and Mercedes, while the floor guys worked their behinds off but still half lost their jobs when something hit the fan, closing entire swing shift. Not to mention 30 or so guys were still on the payroll.

Its good idea to keep business and personal life apart but more often than not they are too intertwined. While you might have morals and ethics you do not appear to be involved in active fraud or other illegal activity. As long you keep all correspondences on hand you might just as said "mind your own business". That’s a tough call.
