I would suggest getting another job. I quit my own family's business because of an idiot cousin. It goes with the whole thing "you can't pick your family" but you sure can quit the job. |

It's always a matter of opinion - and in a family business, your opinion is worth less. |

Gather together all your evidence. Make sure everything is documented. Get affidavits from people. Make video and audio recordings of the son doing whatever it is that shows his incompetence. Get sworn statements from long time clients who are taking their business elsewhere because of what this son is doing. Make your case iron clad. Then scan everything into pdf files. Upload everything to a secure web server. Then present your case to the boss, letting him know that if anything adverse happens to you for reporting this, the information goes public, and (if what the son is doing is illegal) you will sue under the whistleblower statute. |

You can't.
If you try, it comes off as being jealous.
You might want a layer of deniability. Is there a senior officer in whom you have a good relationship? perhaps he can tell the boss about his errant son |

Do you really want to be involve in someone else business? I suggest keeping "what you know" to yourself, you'll find out it'll do you good later on. I advise you don't go fooling around with other people's mess, you might just put yourself deep into a situation you don't want to be in... |

How about writing an anonymous letter signed from a concerned employee, would that help? |

Frankly, there is nothing you can do. If a company is that sick that it hires someone like this, and the management cannot (or will not) see what is going on, then there is nothing for it. Stay out of it, especially if it is a family business. You do NOT want to get entangled in a family affair, especially if you are not part of the family. If the situation is unbearable, find another job, asap. |

I think the letter is a good idea but you'd better have enough evidence to back up your claim. If not, it looks like a personal issue and you won't win . I wouldn't sign my name to it and if there are no changes, I'd start distributing my resume and seeking other employment . You can't win and sometimes can't get involved in family issues. Even if he's a dumb schmuck, he's still the bosses dumb schmuck and that means he's got job security. |
