Today, at work, our boss's son came in to help. The whole time he was there he sat in the back on his phone not helping and whenever we asked him to do something, he had an attitude. The only time he voluntarily got up to help was when his dad came in to check on the restaurant. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my new boss, the CEO's son, finally showed up for work, three days late and right after lunch break. His first order of business was to call a meeting and scream at everyone for not having a diet latte waiting for him on his desk. God help us all. FML
Today, my boss told me I have to start work 4 hours early tomorrow, because that my coworker, who happens to be his son, will not be coming in because he's "too tired". I work 10 hours a day, 6 days a week without complaining. His son works two 4-hour shifts a week. FML
Today, my coworkers wouldn't help cover the front desk and help answer phones at work. They had agreed to do this with our three bosses in the room, after having a discussion about it and coming to an agreement to do this in two hour shifts. They are both older than me and have less work to do than me. FML
Today, and like every day, after I'd just had finished serving a customer on one side of the store, my boss asked me to go help another one on the other side of the store, which is literally a 2-minute walk away, while 2 other staff members were besides him, doing nothing. I don't even get paid commission. FML
Today, my son is an idiot, but I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt by giving him a job as a cashier in one of my stores. Within half an hour, I was sent security footage from that store's manager showing my son on his phone, ignoring customers, picking his nose, and stealing money from the till. FML
Today, while finishing up at work, I started helping a co-worker out with his workload since I'd finished mine. His girlfriend apparently didn't like this and started slamming things around, constantly muttering passive aggressive comments because she wanted to help him. I work with idiots. FML
Today, I had a huge amount of work to get through. Two colleagues offered to help, because one had nothing else to do, and the other couldn't work until I was done. My boss got really pissed at me for "making" them do my job and wasting their time. FML
Today, I watched a manager and a co-worker sit underneath a table in our store all day as I got yelled at for not working hard enough. I was the only one actually working. FML
Today, my mom asked my siblings and me for help cleaning the kitchen. After working for a half hour while all my siblings sat on the couch, I pointed out that I was the only one working. My mom thanked my siblings for not having attitudes like mine and sent me to my room. FML
Today, I was at work at a local hot dog chain. A child (about 10, who I've seen there before) came in to order food for his Dad. He orders very excitedly, and I told him he'd be a great worker here when he gets older. He said "oh no, my Dad says I'm too smart to work in a place like this." FML

You should tell your boss, he might like to know that his son is a lazy asshat.

I agree that he is a lazy ass. However, I don't know why you think you're in a position to complain. He came in to help or perhaps was instructed by his parent to help. He isn't being paid to do so, much unlike yourself.

why do you assume that he isn't getting paid?

How do you know he isn't being paid? I honestly doubt he voluntarily went there out of the goodness of his heart. He is either getting paid, or being punished

Sadly that's life when daddy's the boss

I'm the OP. And I can only assume the son was getting paid bc he's come in before on days I wasn't on duty. The owner himself is incompetent on running a restaurant anyway and attempts to talk to him about things and tools to help us (the ones who are actually present every day), he acts like the problem is solely our fault. Talking to him about his son doing nothing will probably fall on deaf ears.

I'm a bosses daughter when my dad asks me to go help I help. My brother on the other hand messes around and only somtimes busts his butt. Everybody that works for my dad can back up this statement. This guy the OP was talking about was just being a lazy mother decker. But don't let him make you think all bosses kids are bad.

Set up a camera to catch his lazy ass before you get fired for telling your boss

Get used to it, kid. Soon enough the boss's son will inherit the company and **** everyone over to make himself richer.

So have fun with him, send him on errands that don't exist, to the store to pick up left handed coffee cups or something line that that he's gullible enough to fall for.
