    This is my motto, my teenage daughter is going into the work force eventually and I drill this into her head, i also remind her that your coworkers aren’t your family and your boss is not your friend. Don’t do “favours” for your employer who can afford to pay you, do favours for your friends not your job

      “We’re a family here” = “We will disregard any boundary you set up for your work/life balance because we are both your work and life now.”
