business question

[greeneyes]

Hubby wnats me to show someone how to do my job. Family business. Person not an official employee yet. I feel nervous about her. Efficient, but way to familiar and cozying up too early on. Hubby stupid in that arena. Therapist kept shaking her head saying get your ducks in a row and get out. Maybe I'm the stupid one. Maybe not. I filed marrried separate so I could just say here is the program here are the checks. Good luck. Shit I am LLC connected. How do I get out of that? Yikes. Gotta go.

business question

Beaner whats going on? Is he hiring a new assistant or looking for a new partner??? You filed your "taxes" married, separate .... was this the first time? (This year)

As far as the LLC - it can be changed if a divorce happens. An LLC is like a piece of personal property in a marriage. With a legal stroke of a pen - it can be changed. What is the deal with hubbie??

Oh Liv, Makes me rub my greenie face. Yes, married separate was first time. Felt like I needed to be free & clear regarding that. I'll talk to the accountant about the LLC issue. He is sole proprietor so this person is just a receptionist. At the moment. She doesn't even have a car! Who will run errands, go to the bank, etc? This situation is so bizzzare I can't even post it.

business question

If we remain married and I am not a part of the biz, a stranger will have to be a part of the LLC. I said I wanted my money out as I was uncomfortable with that and he hung up on me. Hanging up on someone is like a slap in the face. Grrrrrrr It is a really complicated situation. At least through my eyes.

Greenie,

Sounds complicated. Without knowing all the facts/circumstances, LF is right about the LLC.

It is typically normal in a business to cross train jobs "just in case" but my folks had a small business and it was just the two of them for years. It grew somewhat and they brought in a new person and she nosed her way into everything. Just be on your guard and keep an eye on her. If you can, keep some things to yourself and refuse to give up control of certain things. Claim privacy issues because of her being so new.

Also, if your marriage is on the brink maybe therapist is right. Make a plan and an exit strategy thinking of yourself FIRST. Also, if you have any private files on your system, cache history, etc., on your computer that you don't want her to see, get rid of them! Did you have any say in her hiring?? Gabby.

business question

Greenie, why would a stranger "have" to be part of the LLC if you stay married (or even if you don't stay married)? Is it because more money would have to be invested by another party? If not, why not just have an employee rather than a business partner?

Our family company is set up as a Sub Chapter S Corp rather than an LLC, so I'm not as familiar with that.

Maybe you should stop by an attorney's office on your way to that therapist?

If you have a financial stake in this business, I think it would be worth talking to a professional whether you stay married or not. I know I would.

Best wishes, and I'm sorry you are going through a rough patch.

Beaner - Hang tight and don't give up anything. You will want to be clear and sober if this all comes down. I think your gaining strength you didn't know you had.

Love ya

Greenie,
I think ya need to go to Lenair and when that is behind you, make life long decisions. You have a lot on your plate right now. One step at a time! I know how nervous you must befeeling about our trip to Lenair, me too. I really can't think of anything else right now. I'd be nuts. This is HUGE.

business question

Greenie, I agree with both Britt and Doggygirl. First off, go to Lenair, when you are sober, and clear headed, then and only then will you have the tools to make life long decisions that are solid and in your best interest.

Secondly, if you decide to divorce and exit the business. See lawyer and find out what it best for you. And....in the meantime.......do not let "hubby" dictate what will be done. Tell him that you will discuss this after Lenair.

Until then, take good care of Greenie!

business question

Hi

Before I can reply..................what is an LLC?

[greeneyes]

business question

Thank you all for your advice. I spoke to acct. He is fond of me (in a friendship way) and said the LLC structure does not require a second person. He and hubby are not real compatible. I will hang tight until after Lenair. I completely agree with that advice. Hubby may go in Sept. so I will make it through the summer. I am a strong person and can do it. I believe we are both worth it.

business question

First things first - get sober, I said this on another post earlier and it was a lesson I had to learn. I dropped my work, income, flat, bills and college to go to rehab since I knew putting it off would get me in a worse mess eventually.
