Posted by Elaine on April 22, 2014

When Grace and her brother John took over the family small business, John insisted that his expertise was in the office. He would be in charge of any human resources needs, all employee needs regarding benefits and health care, payroll, and anything they might decide to do later, as they considered a partnership with another company.
