When you are applying for a job, you are selling to someone who is not against you.
why would your family be against youπ
Infact he/she is trying to look for the best in you and how the firm can benefit from your knowledge..
When facing opposition at home from family members or spouse , you are already at the disadvantage and facing hostility and then their is emotional blackmail involved in a domestic situation too.
And the advantage is you have known them for years, just as they know you, you them too, education is all about learning from experiences, if you have not learnt from the past experiences, then this disadvantage/hostility is daunting, if not easy
One cannot say that if are you are not competent in changing a domestic situation to your advantage , you are not worthy to the corporate world.
worthy is when you are even willing to prove a worth, if you lose the hope before you even reach the corporate world, being worthy or unworthy is immaterial

A lot of succesful people and CEO's are terrible with their personal lives because one cannot apply the same rules to both domestic and corporate situations. Imagine a pre requisite for a job offer- Have you succeded in convincing your spouse or family?
Yes(and now please do not come back with men situation is different,b'cos I am tired of hearing that)
If not do not bother to apply.π
why not have not thousands if not millions done this before? there are always thousands of reasons in not doing something, there is only one reason for doing it
