I guess the reason I don't like talking about my day at work that much currently is that, invariably, when I'm at the dinner table and I get asked how my day was, my sister lectures me or provokes me saying "So have you talked to admissions about going back to school" and I'm just like trying to ease away from that, because I could use less people staring at me from across the dinner table utterly disappointed in me

#I mean ya know I am the labelled disappointment of the family but #Like for real.#Any work story #Even if its like Joe was such an asshole to me today!#Bryan you should apply to trade school and get your BA #And Im just like :l #Im vastly overwhelmed by work life balance and living in this house and IIIII #Dont think school is for me?#Currently?#BUT how do I fucking say that to you when youre looking at me like Im actually a bum?#And the fucking oldest kid wanted to jump in and be like UW Bothell has a great campus its close to your work!#Yeah kid not the point #I get them wanting good things for me #But my sisters stern disapproval #Just makes me think she just sees me and they all see me #As the failure to launch loser uncle #And I could use less of that #And less being grilled #When Im just trying to eat some soup #Sigh #I really shouldnt tell anybody work stories huh
