Swiping through my phone, I saw a blogger sharing his "sad" experience: In the third month of being unemployed at home, my mother had begun to dislike me......
The comment area exploded instantly, and countless college students who "sympathized with the same disease" left messages one after another, piercing their hearts, and saw that I, a graduate who had been "lying flat" at home for several months, empathized fiercely.
But no, I think at the beginning, I was still the little princess and the little emperor in the family, and my parents couldn't wait to hold all the good things in front of me. But since graduating, everything has changed.
In the beginning, my parents would gently ask me about my current situation and care about my job search. But as time passed, my resume sank into the sea, and my parents' attitudes gradually changed subtly.
At first, it was a side knock: "Have all your classmates and friends found jobs?" What are you doing? ”
Then, it was a euphemistic suggestion: "Otherwise, you should find a part-time job first, don't stay at home all day, easy to be cranky." ”
In the end, it directly turned into a bright dislike: "Why don't you look for a job yet?" I know all day long that I play mobile phones and games at home, and when you look at other people's children, when they are your age, they are already ......."
Whenever this happens, I can't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into. It's not that I don't want to look for a job, it's that the reality is too skinny. The resumes that are sent out will either be lost, or there will be no follow-up after the interview.
I've tried to lower my expectations, but I'm really not willing to do jobs with low pay and poor pay.
In this way, I fell into a dilemma: high or low, gnawing at home, and being disliked.
What's even more heart-wrenching is that my mother often compares me with the children of relatives: "Look at your cousin, who joined a large company after graduation, and now his salary is tens of thousands of dollars every month, look at your ...... again"
Of course I know, my cousin is very good, but everyone has their own rhythm, doesn't they?
I also want to be like him, find a good job and let my parents live a good life. However, the reality often backfires.
I'm also anxious, I'm confused, and I want to prove myself. But what should I do?
Swiping through the comment area and seeing many netizens sharing their experiences and feelings, I suddenly realized that it turned out that I was not fighting alone.
"Me too, I've been unemployed at home for almost half a year, living in self-doubt and self-denial every day, feeling like I'm worthless."
"My mother was even more exaggerated, and directly gave me an ultimatum, saying that if I can't find a job again, let me go on a blind date and get married, saying that having a stable home is better than anything else."
"My parents didn't say anything, but I could feel that they were disappointed in me, and every time I saw them stop talking, it made me feel very uncomfortable."
……
Looking at these comments, I was suddenly relieved. It turns out that every college student who is unemployed at home is under tremendous pressure.
It's not that we don't want to work hard, we just haven't found our way yet. It's not that we're not unfilial, it's just that we don't have the ability to repay our parents for the time being.
I believe that as long as we don't give up hope, keep our feet on the ground, and take one step at a time, one day, we will find our own stage and realize our own value.
I also hope that all college students who are unemployed at home can find a job as soon as possible, get rid of the label of "gnawing the old", and become the pride of their parents!
