How many of you work for a company that feels like a family? I read an interesting thought recently from a book that described the difference of a team mentality instead of a family mentality (sorry – forgot which book).

When you work for a company, you are employed under the premise that you are going to accomplish certain tasks in exchange for financial compensation. At any time, you could quit or they could fire you. You won’t “quit” on a family (well, you aren’t supposed to) and a family won’t fire you. Because you are family.  A family is defined as a group of one or more parents and their children living as a unit.

A team, on the other hand, is different from a family.
