That is no longer possible in civilian government jobs here. Nepotism after all. If there are relatives working for the same facility or post they cannot be in the same area to avoid any appearance of preferential treatment in anyway. Military relatives cannot be in the same section/platoon either but they can be in the same company. As long as the immediate chain of command is different. I do not know what is place to prevent it in state or municipal jobs though - I've never worked for the state or for the city/county.


>> Then the boss' wife started working there. Right away there were problems with her which culminated in her telling us how incompetent we were and how we should all be let go for outsourcing to India. This was the last straw for several of us and they ended up losing ~25 years of experience in less than 6 months. I heard from my former co-workers that after we all left, corporate did another investigation but this time they didn't let the boss run it: the boss' wife was forced to "resign" about a week later

>We've had two husband/wife teams. One is currently with us is a demorlizing circus act. A previous husband/wife team were in mgt positions and created tons of their own damage, thankfully after the wife left, the husband has behaved himself. I think that husband/wife teams can feed off each other in a negative way. Have you ever seen one work well?
