Never hire friends for work—Here's why​

I’m furious at a so-called friend I hired as a dishwasher. This guy constantly spews my private life to coworkers ("who I’ve dated," my past mistakes, flaws)—the "dating" part infuriates me most. He acts entitled, snaps his fingers at me like a dog, and even forgot a birthday gift I gave him. Now I’m quitting this dead-end job with a ruined resume, thanks to his drama. My coworkers aren’t my family—they don’t need to hear my personal mess. Lesson learned: Never hire friends unless you’ve seen their professionalism firsthand (like through remote work). Otherwise, it’s a disaster waiting to happen. #WorkplaceDrama #ToxicFriendship #HiringMistakes #ResumeDamage #BoundariesAtWork
