Good morning,
You must differentiate between job and your social relationships. Work is work. Of course, you can seek help from friends to work, and this makes you a team, and this will help your work flourish, but all of this remains under the conditions of work, and at work there are no friends or relatives, each one has his duties that he must fulfill , they takes this into consideration. Some people may seize the opportunity, and they become negligent and lazy and do not do their work to the fullest extent. Work has its time, and friends have their time.
Friends are a positive thing at work, but if you invest that relationship in creating an understanding team full of innovative ideas and determination to complete the job and progress further in the plans.
agree, for business, put aside friends first. Because why? with business, we run is full of hard work, money and time. So, there is no harm in trusting a friend if he is a hard worker and can be trusted.
