The parents of America’s socioeconomic upper class have announced that nepotism is less fun when your kids suck.
“I always loved the idea of a father-son duo making deals and expanding the company,” said wealthy businessman Eric Trevorman, who had been excited to use his economic and social power to make his children successful and cement his legacy. “But then I realized that my son is absolutely unbearable.”
“I started traveling for work more often because 30,000 feet in the air is the only place I can be free from any form of contact with him,” continued Trevorman, who had previously looked forward to pulling strings and undermining hiring processes to give his son a leg up. “But ever since I got him a job at the company he has just started coming on business trips with me. Now my life is a nightmare I can’t wake up from.”
At press time, Trevorman was requesting to be transferred to the Hong Kong office.
