In case anyone started thinking again that Chris has turned into a feminist SJW, we have yet another "I'm a woman, because I'm a passive, histrionic, overgrown child! Like women are!" post. Thanks Chris.

I don't think the problem is that Chris needs a job, we all know no one would EVER employ him for ANYTHING for so many reasons. He gets more than enough money in his tugboat, he just blows it all away on toys. It's money management he needs

I'd like that to happen.

He has some IRL friends. He goes to a card shop to play Pokemon once a week with a group there, and he has some people from there on his FB friend list.

One of them posted on his FB page recently and offered to help him find a job. I wonder if his post today is related to that.

The idiot deals in absolutes. He probably had everyone IRL laughing at him telling him he is not a man, in a derogatory sense, and he assumes it means he must be a woman, in the factual sense.

Maybe Marvin can recall the details better than me, but there was a point a few years ago where Rocky actually lined up a real job for Chris. Glass sorting or something of the like, but it was a paycheck that would've gotten Chris out of the house and brought him a good deal of extra money. Not an interview - Rocky talked to someone who had a job to give, and that person said "sure Rocky, the job is his. Just send him in." He had the job.

Chris went out of his way to not follow up with Rocky. He fell conveniently silent when the friends who knew about it asked why he wouldn't go for it despite constantly bitching about having money hardships.

I'm not sure, but during the Jackie saga, Chris started mentioning Rocky was looking into job placement options for him.

Ahaha, I forgot about this (Jackie's dad's backstory):
As for my parents, well, I can give you the rundown. My father's from Philadelphia, born and raised, on the playground is where he spent most of his days. Then one day he decided he wanted to be an engineer, so he found some good schools and started applying around here. He got accepted to Virginia Tech and his mom got stoked, she said "you're packing your bags and moving to Roanoke". And that's how he came to be in Virginia.

Which flew over his head. And if the Fresh Prince is too subtle for Chris, what Jackie followed up with would've been rocket science:
My mother's story is a bit different from my father's, and a bit more interesting. She comes from Los Angeles originally, way out in California. She never went to college after high school initially, she spent her early 20's as a waitress in a little diner. Actually, a really freaky thing happened to her when she was young: There was this crazy guy who came along and tried to murder her after she got off work one night. The guy almost succeeded too, except that a good samaritan saved her life and got her away from the attacker. The guy pursued both of them for days, I think he actually shot up a bunch of cops while doing so, killing a few of them. Eventually the murderer killed my mother's protector, but she managed to kill him in self-defense by trapping him in some big crushing press (they were in a factory at the time, I think the murderer worked there or something, I don't know how they all wound up there). But before her protector died, the two of them shared a night of intimacy, during which my half-brother was conceived.

A few years after that, my father and some of his college friends went to L.A. on spring break, and they were doing body shots in the club where my mother happened to have taken a job. My father slipped that lime into my mother's mouth and their eyes met, and both knew it was meant to be. Soon after my father graduated and my mother moved out to Virginia to be with him, and they got married. I was born a few years later. I'm still to this day not allowed to ask my mother directly about what happened with the murderer all those years ago (It's a very traumatic subject for her), but my father has told me some things that she told him: Apparently, the guy was absolutely crazy, when he came at her he was ranting about her needing to die or else his race was going to die in the apocalypse in the future, I guess he thought she was like the anti-christ or something. I don't know what race he was talking about, my dad said he looked like some eastern european.

Anyway, as for my half-brother: He was like 8 years older than me and we never had a very strong relationship. He was kind of a bad seed, always getting into trouble when he was a teenager, he smoked all the time, stole money, did vandalism, other petty crimes. He actually caused a lot of fights for our family. A little before he turned 18, he ran away and said he didn't want to come back, and he refuses to talk to any of us now. Last I heard he moved back to Los Angeles, but I think he's just kind of living off the grid, semi-homeless. I don't know if he has a job or not. It's really sad because I think he had some mental illness or instability, he always got so angry and impulsive and was really paranoid about stuff. Sometimes I think about him and hope he's doing okay but he's really not a part of any of our lives anymore.

i had too look up a bunch of stuff when hiring a disabled veteran for my shop since he was concerned about losing some benefits.

as far as i was was able to figure out and was advised, you can work up to 80 hours a month or under $1,100 per month for a period of up to 9 months as a "trial" to see if you can even work at all. during this time period you collect full benefits. after that, if you continue to work, or you work more hours, or make more money, your benefits are reduced by some $500 or so depending on various factors, but it's never cut off completely until your earnings from the job alone exceed the benefits - at which point benefits are terminated and you start putting back into the SSDI fund again.

at least that's my understanding.

considering spending history, his overvaluing and undervaluing things, and general ineptness, i would guess he has difficulty grasping abstract concepts like math and money and value, as well as planning for the future rather than living in the present. he walked away (apparently) from a job sorting glass and refuses to acknowledge it as a viable means of earning a living likely because he doesn't want to be called out on being a lay-about as well as refusing to take any responsibility for his own actions - if it's out of sight it's out of mind, and the less responsibility he has over his circumstances the less he must face his own horrific failure to thrive as an adult.

the childishness shown when he actively seeks refuge from harsh reality by retreating into frivolity and lashing out when needled also shows an incredible amount of immaturity and inability to deal with situations vital to success in a first world adult's life. i'm sure precious little of this post is anything new, but the plainness of questioning his ability to survive after his mother's death is quite literally the debate between seeing Chris pawned off to other family or group home, to living in near poverty in a house he cannot maintain while depending on the state and handouts to play with toys and whine online about nonsense.

notice how other online whiners tend to not make much of themselves either: Philtato and Twitter/Tumblr et al. correlation is strong.

If he had been given the right lifeskills growing up he might be employable now, but no he is never going to get a job. He is downright unemployable. I agree with him on that. He COULD change, but that would take him loosing his home, his mother, and being in a group home or something.
 
Yoooooooooooung warrior! Stop wasting all your money on childish toys and live within your means.

Yoooooooooooung warrior! Quit making excuses for being a lazy slug.

Yoooooooooooung warrior! If you're really worried about your financial state then sell off that childish bullshit in your second bedroom and pay off your debts. Also, stop just making the minimum payment.

Yoooooooooooung warrior! Grow the fuck up and act your age.

It's sad. He somehow managed to graduate community college, yet won't even try to get a basic job stocking shelves.

Bob really should have pressured Chris to keep applying for jobs after Wendy's, especially since he was still pushing Chris to finish college at the time. Maybe Chris would have eventually seen a job as something to prove adulthood, like the lovequest.

I think Chris deleted the comments from Kim Wilson.

Both were removed just after he responded to her comment on the other post. She must have really struck a nerve that time.
