Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

I’m in a bit of a tricky situation and could use some advice. My boss is supportive, kind, and overall a great person to work for. Recently, he asked if I could occasionally drop his wife off on my way home since their house is along my route. He also mentioned that I could leave a bit earlier to accommodate this, which is a nice bonus.

While I don’t mind helping out, I’m torn about the personal aspect of it. On one hand, it’s a small favor, and he’s been really supportive of me, but I’m unsure if this might blur any professional boundaries.

What’s your take? Should I keep helping with the rides, or is this something I should reconsider to maintain a clear work-life balance?

Day by day i am getting more frustrated. I was hired as content Writer but now i am working on behalf of 3 people one content Writer + manager + e-commerce executive because executive above me left his job. 

So basically now i handle designers + writers their work sheets, tasks management, client emails, client changes, client calls and everything of content.  Though when asked for raise, ceo says its your job only you are not doing anything extra. 

I want to quit this so bad but financially i cant. And i am not even getting remote opportunities in content writing so i think i am doomed. This is dead end now.
