Business Q&A

Question:
I work for a ambulance company that is having problems. First, our marketing director tried to sink the company because he has personal differences with the owner (she wouldnt let him run the company his way). My owner wasnt aware of what he was doing until he tried to stage a mass walk-out. He succeeded to some degree. So, we've had financial set-backs because of his actions and increased costs on fuel and less in payments from medicare.
Keeping in mind that several people walked out on the owner, I dont want to be part of those who were trying to destroy her company, but at the same time, the owner is having trouble making payroll. I'm a single mom and cant afford to be without a check. I'm the office manager and it's incredibly stressful because collectors are constantly calling and there isnt money to pay the bills. What should I do? I dread coming to work every day but I dont want to be disloyal like the others.

Answer:
Tough question. As much as you like the owner, if she cannot pay you to be an employee, then you must, for the sake of your kids, find another job which WILL provide a steady paycheck. Leave the door to coming back to your current jobopen though, in case she weathers this financial crisis and gets the ambulance service back in the black, so to speak.

I've said this before: It's NEVER a good idea to burn bridges when you leave a job. You may need that job again someday. So please, tell her how much you wish you could stay, how much you enjoy working for her, but the needs of your children outweigh your feelings for the owner. On the other hand it sounds as though the job of Marketing Director is open in her company, maybe you could try for that position? Unless of course, you don't feel you could do it and help her get more sales.
