He is probably just afraid for you. People have to work, and you don't have to love your job. I think a better way of going about it might have been to get another job first, then quit. Would you have done that if you lived alone, paying all the bills? God, I sound like a mother........
For what it's worth... You do have to do something with your life, right? So, not working is ok - BUT - why? If you're sick, studying, looking for another job, harassement, ect. In these cases, ol'daddy can go fuck himself. If you're not working because you're lazy and it's a great Summer, you need a kick in the butt there are enough lifetime welfare cases as it is...
The NDP just won the balance of power. NOW is the time for her to sit on her ass and collect welfare handouts. She might have to hug a tree to get the money but who cares! The need to work for money(hence life) is gone.
Why is he so upset? It's not like you use your parent's money to buy things because you're not working.
Whats really happening im going to hazard a guess is that because he's sick and not working he's scared himself of whats going to happen to his/yours/the familys future. He's really stressed out over how he's going to cover all his own bills that when you told him your just quiting your job for the hell of it that its like lifes just slapping him down again.. just another blow to his own stillbilitys. something more to worry about..another bill in another form. makes him want to just cry but no..he can't do that cause he's Dad. So he gets mad. mad at you for quiting your job. mad at mom for not guiding you better ( yea its moms fault cause hey..he's dad and your the girl and mom is suppost to be watching you ) But what he's not saying though is this..he's mad at himself, for falling apart..at his own dam body for failing him. and he's scared cause he knows deep down inside that there is nothing he can do about it and thats...that is what upsets him the most..not being able to do anything about it. So you wonder " what can i do?" Simple things really.. go get another job this week..not next week. This week. tell him you love him.. Buy him some food he likes..or a drink. But above all else.. DONT give him anything else to worry about. You should of never have told him you quit. now all that i just rambled about..dont get me wrong here ok. I'm not knocking you ok. In essence you did nothing wrong. Its just bad timing is all, nothing more. So chin up and lets move on from here. dont be scared. he's just mad at alot more then you. Just do your part though, get that new job and make him happier is all. He needs you to be stable, If your stable he's at least not having to worry about you . And that will make him just that much more stable himself .
your only 19.... your life isnt going to be ruined because you quit a job.... you have plenty of time to find a job... your dad sounds like an idiot, he should think back to when he was your age. you dont have any rent to pay... you dont have kids to support (well maybe you do who knows) your not going to die because you quit a stupid job ... lots of people do that... especially our age
