Dear Elderly Aunt: I’ve been working for a small firm owned by my father’s best friend. But it’s making me miserable. The people there are fine, but the work isn’t what I want to do, and I’ve started dreading going to work. I’m in the process of looking for another job, but I’ve made the decision that I need to quit soon no matter what. How do I break the news to both my dad and his best friend (my boss)? I mean, it’s not like I can tell them that I hate my job and the work the firm does, right?
