Why are my parents such idiots who understand nothing and dont even give me a chance?

Question by Paul N: Why are my parents such idiots who understand nothing and dont even give me a chance?
Ok, im here to bitch about my parents and thier lack of intelligence. And this is also a challenge to all you smart ass parents who love to shoot kids down on this kind of stuff by telling us your always right. Ok heres my dilemma. Im 18, i live in the UK. I don’t drive, and i dont have many qualitifcations. Im looking for a job. My last job was working for my dad, as a dry liner in the building trade. This for for about a year but then as self employed work sometimes goes, he had no more work for me. I was qualified enough to go and work for another company, so this left me on the job hunt again. Now, its septempter, and i finished working for my dad at the end of june. So ive been out of work for 2 months. Every single day i look on the internet, in the newspapers, on teletext, the whole freaking works to try and find a job. the trouble is its hard to find work when you dont drive and have to rely on public transport. It has come to the point where i am willing to take any job no matter what, as long as i can get there and back safely, and theres enough hours in it. However, finding this seems to be an impossible task at the moment, but like i said im looking every day, and when im out and about i ask in shops and stuff too. I do have previous retail experience and some other stuff too so i dont have to worry about that. But my problem is, EVERY SINGLE DAY when my parents come home they shout thier heads off at me, telling me how im so lazy and just cant be bothered to work. Its like they think i enjoy being broke and having debts i cant pay? I have a credit card which has about £600 to pay, results of my holiday at the start of july. Obviously i was unaware i was going to be jobless. So anyway, although i paid for payment protection against unemployment on my credit card, the bank have had the check to refuse my claim for unemployment, leaving me to deal with this debt on my own. Tossers. Anyway, my parents KNOW that i spend most my time looking for a job ive told them so many times, they even SEE me doing it on the computer or reading the paper. And now they keep suggesting stupid jobs that they see in the paper, ones that you need major qualifications for and they know i dont have, and when i say i cant do that i havent got the right qualifications, all they do is yell at me again and say i just cant be bothered. Well, im sick of this shit now. I try my fucking hardest and all i get is yelled at. And heres the best one, my dad has now told me that if i dont have a job within the next week, he is going to kick me out. And he will. Hes done it before over the years, he kicked me out when i was 14 because i was 10 minutes late home. I had to live on the streets for 2 weeks before my friends parents took me in for about 6 months and finally helped convince my parents to let me come back. Anyway. Im just so sick of being treated unfairly, its fucking bullshit. Especially seeing as the reason i lost my last job was because he “couldnt” find any more work for me. Fucking tosser, funny how he kept everyone else going. And now he is constantly shouting at me for something he is partially responsible for. I just dont know what to do anymore. They keep telling me i owe them money for rent too, which i do, but they know i dont have a fucking job. and…ARRRRG im just so sick of this shit. Please, someone, adopt me. I defy anybody out there to say that my parents are being fair, and if you do then your just an idiot, and would probably be good friends with my parents. Please, help me!!!

Question by :) : What were Sparta’s strength’s and weaknesses. WILL GIVE BEST ANSWERRR?

Answer by Josh L
all the spartans of sparta where put to work as soldiers, which created a strong military, while the slave helots and non citizen perioikoi where at work keeping the city run properly. the main weakness of sparta was that none of the spartans where trained in anything besides militarism, and also that the helots outnumbered the spartans by 80%(not good, since the helots despised their captors the spartans)

strength: disciplined, gigantic military
weakness: no skills besides militarism, largely outnumbered by slaves

What reason do I give for leaving the two below described jobs?

Question by thatladybugc: What reason do I give for leaving the two below described jobs?
Please help, I have a job interview in the morning. I just resigned from a job where my boss, the business owner was too hard to work for. I endured the cursing and ranting almost every day, making me feel worthless, and I am a very good employee. He was like this not only to me, but the other people in office too. First time in my life I have ever worked for someone like this. Was bringing it home with me. Applied for another job and got it, then after 2 weeks, that employer let me go, you know the old catch and release without reason hiring situation. So now when I go to look for a new job and am asked why I left those previous employers, what do I say?

Answer by sflrealtor
Just say the “fit” wasn’t right and you realized that the goals of youself and the previous employers differed. NEVER say anything negative about them though.

What answer would you give to this question in a job interview?

Question by vjustice4all: What answer would you give to this question in a job interview?
What are your weaknesses?

Would it be proper to say that one of your weaknesses is Interviewing? I have minimal experience in interviewing because I have been stable at my current job for many years.

Please help me with this one. I don’t know how to answer it.

Thank you in advance for your answers!!

Answer by Ghost of Zeuz
Change the question around by showing how you overcame a previous weakness. For example, “In the past I had difficulty organizing my time effectively. But after I took a seminar on organizational skills I applied those skills to my work, and I have been considered to be one of the most organized people since then.”

What happens if my ex-boss refuses to give me my W2 form for taxes?

Question by ryohei: What happens if my ex-boss refuses to give me my W2 form for taxes?
Well the reason why I’m asking is I left that job with very cold feelings as the guy was a complete jerk. I recently moved as well so he does not have my current address but I was going to contact him so he can send me the form.

I was talking to a co-worker about this too and he said my boss has no benefit not giving me the form and it’s illegal if he refuses to give it.

Just wondering if this is true? What will happen if he doesn’t give it ?

Thank you~

He could face a penalty from IRS if he fails to file a W3 Schedule with SSA reflecting his W2s. He has until the end of January to mail the W2s. If you don’t get yours send him a letter. If he still does not give it to you by 2-15, you can file a Substitute W2 with your return by using IRS Form 4852.

One thing, you need to give him the new address.

How long should I wait after an interview to give them a call?

Question by Mr. Q: How long should I wait after an interview to give them a call?
Here’s the situation….

I went in for an interview about two weeks ago. Then I got called in for a second interview. Last Wednesday I got a call telling me that I got the position and that the HR Dept. person will be contacting me with the Offer Sheet and other information.

It is almost one week now since I was told verbally that I got the job, but the HR person has yet to call or email me an offer sheet. How much longer should I wait before I make a call to check? Or should I even call to check?

Thanks in advance for your help…

Answer by Pat
