So, at what time did you go home? Was she mad?
To everyone saying "just move out lol" or "why are you still living at home at 27, you loser?" I have one thing to say: screw you. Lots of people are unwillingly stuck living with their parents due to the crappy economy. Anyone here actually turned on the news or looked at a newspaper lately? The job market is in the toilet and a lot of people can't find work to save their lives. And--this is pretty hard to believe, so brace yourselves--it's hard to pay rent on your own place if you don't have a job. Automatically assuming that someone in their 20s who still lives at home is lazy or irresponsible is naive, judgmental, and narrow-minded. And yes, I am 26 and still live with my parents, and yes, I would give my left arm to move out. But I can't, because no one will hire me despite my summa cum laude bachelor's degree that I busted my ass to earn. So everyone can just feel free to STFU and jump right off your high horses.
I've got mixed opinions on this one. First of all, your life is f***ed because your mom left you the majority of your messages? Real life will bite you in the butt if that's your biggest problem. Now, as for the people talking about others living at home? Again, like it's been said several times, it's not easy to just move out. I know, I'm still living at home because I get 10 hours a week at my job, if I'm lucky. I can't pay rent on that, but on one else will hire me in this stupid economy. I'm glad so many people have good jobs and job security, but most of us don't. Karma will bite you all in the butt! Several of my classmates, who graduated with me five years ago, have moved out and are now back in town because they can't make it on their own. What really makes me mad is when the jerk people are the ones with the good, big jobs, and the nice people like me who work their butt off (and have college degrees) can't get anything. It's sickening!
Have you tried looking for another job? Where do you even work? I have more hours than you in just 2 days of work at a grocery store...
^ this. Also, it's depressing how many people either disregard the possibility, or simply haven't imagined their elderly parent needing them when the time comes; requiring day-to-day care because they can't entirely take care of themselves. To those who finding any fault with living at home as an adult, beyond putting untenable financial strain on your parents, you've got vanity issues and a few western familial-social constructs to overcome; reality doesn't give a *sh!t* about how cool you look. I can promise the majority of people with real responsibilities and obligations don't either.
