Although I had never had a chance to work with my brother earlier, I think now I have experience teaching in a college, so I could help him and enhance my teaching skills while working with him. I would be over the moon to work with my brother because he has ten years of experience running this business online. I must say it’s an excellent platform for me to work there.

As of now, his business is running successfully, so after joining him, I will get plenty of opportunities that can help in earn a considerable amount of income. Therefore, he is a person with whom I would like to work.

Well, it is a very great idea if one gets a chance to work with a family member. I would like to open a new bakery with my brother. I can bake delicious cakes, but I’m not good with finance and recent technological advancements like online booking of orders. My brother is a techy nerd and did an MBA, so he is also good with finance. Moreover, his communication skills are way better than mine. Also, he has good taste, so I can rely on him if I want to introduce any new item or experiment with the old one. It will be fun to work with him because we get a chance to spend more time together.
