I'm now a foreman in my brother-in-law's plastic recycling plant. Very quickly, I have to learn what everyone's task is, and to detect mistakes. I also keep track of how much work each unit is doing, to make sure everyone's paid correctly.
On American principle, I object to your getting hired by brother-in-law, and your nepotistic & quick promotion as "foreman."
This stinky & prejudiced situation reminds me of Theodore Dreiser's book "American Tragedy," and how a rich factory owner hired his nephew as foreman, then knocked-up a factory girl, tried drowning her in a NY lake, fell in love with a socialite, and was convicted of murdering the seamstress. Bah!
Awful, Linh! Couldn't bro-in-law get with "diversity" and have just as easily hired a qualified (& aged) white-American pensioner,expat?
In this corner of the world, family matters a whole lot, and when it comes to money, most just don't quite trust outsiders. Even with family members, some may disqualify themselves through past dishonesty or incompetence. Though I'm not quite competent, I'm not seen as a sneaky thief, hence my post as foreman. My brother-in-law trusts me to keep everything and everyone in line while he's away.
If I try to knock up a factory girl, I will likely be killed by her, her boyfriend or husband, then castrated by my wife.
