Thanks for the hugs! They are appreciated. It was a completely terrible dinner/evening with my dad and sister (Mom and my brother are in Texas until tomorrow), wherein after a shitty not-quite-argument in the car, I did not say a word to anyone other that the waitress and ended up going to bed at 9:30 because I was too stressed out to do anything else. And the only thing my dad and sister could talk about that they agreed on was how stupid and lazy and generally terrible my brother is for not having found a job yet. Which of course was cross-applicable to me, who was WATCHING BASEBALL (which I hate) rather than be involved with them.
Anyway it was miserable, and I felt like letting off a little steam and not oversharing, so I posted 15-year-old style and here we are. I feel better today, but I did strategically plan my gym visit to ensure that I did not have to speak to my sister today (unless my plans for pub quiz fall through - but I probably still won't talk to her). It's a mess is the moral of the story.
There are too many people hating on others for not finding work. So dumb. Yeah, some individuals might be lazy but a lot of them are just having bad fortune with this crap. I haven't even been directly involved in any of these conversations but it makes my blood boil.
Hope things cool off at home. I'm sure you're stressed enough without the assistance of any one else riding on you about anything. **hugs**
Definitely. I fought with my dad about it again today. I said I had an appointment this afternoon, and he assumed it was a job interview (why?). I said no, it's for therapy. And he said, "...I like that job interview thing. That would be good." Like seriously. I said I was doing the best I could etc etc and his response was, "Well there's really only one way to get one." Yep, thanks, I'm aware. But it's not like I'm not trying. But of course he doesn't care if I'm trying - he just wants an opportunity to tell me how lazy and irresponsible I am for not having magically manifested a job already. Whatever, it's retarded. Worse so when no one will give me an interview because I'm too educated/overqualified. Which of course means I won't do the work? Whatever. I'm over it. I'm trying to get reponses in NOLA, but it's not going well so far, either
