What they say / What they mean - Your parents one week after graduation

We understand the economy is terrible, don’t worry honey, you’ll figure it out. (We resent you for not having a job.)

You can live at home until you get on your feet. (You are a burden. Get a job)

It’s OK to not know what you want to do with your life.  (Get a job. Any job.)

What did you do today? (Do you have a job yet? Get a job.)

Here’s a list of things you can do to help around the house. (Here are some unnecessary taks I’ve created. Get a job.)

My Dad’s advice was always “good things come to those who wait,” hang in there kiddo.
(Grandpa died a pauper. Get a job.)

Why don’t you call your old friend Trevor and see him? (He has a job. Get a job.)

We love you. (You have one week until we eat you and deny your existence.)
