You’re right I’m losing respect. I have started looking down on him, because he’s asked me the same set of questions, like what the difference between finance and HR is, like 20 times as if I haven’t explained to him, and by the 10th time I get frustrated.

Everyone in his family who works for the business has had another job elsewhere before, and they all take on managerial duties, except him. He’s vastly overpaid. The other employees that do his job get paid minimum wage and he does the grunt work like stocking shelves. The most managerial thing he does is count inventory, which his brother oversees. The family doesn’t trust him to take on more managerial stuff because the few times he has he’s fucked up in inconceivable ways, like he calculated the sq footage of tile one of the special order customers needed by dividing the square inches by 24 and ordered $2000 more tile than needed and this stuff couldn’t be returned.

It’s like he graduated high school and instantly became an idiot or something. We used to be able to have all these crazy fun intelligent conversations and now all he wants to talk about is Kim Kardashian’s ass or something in the media.
