Not using real name, never know who reads. I run a business that does machinery repairs. One customer has a son that works for him. Good kid, late 20's. Not the sharpest tack in the box, but used to be respectful, would ask questions, and I was pleased to go the extra mile to try to educate him. I saved his case many times, and even covered things for him at times,when he goofed up. He used to appreciate it and often thanked me.
Last few months, he has really changed, has become arrogant, has told lies about how things got damaged (I am no fool) List goes on. Has hung me out to dry a few times. Tried to gently talk to his Dad, but I could tell that was a waste of time.
I really hate to have to do this, but it looks like I am going to let him really mess up.. Not that I would do anything intentional, just stop spending the extra effort to educate him. Sink or Swim. Is this wrong?
