I have a very very close relationship with my family;especially with my little cousins. I have a specific uncle that always makes me feel unworthy of anything. He always belittles me in any way. I am almost done with school and I am looking for a job and I ask for his advise. Assuming that he has changed, due to the fact that I have not been around that much because of him(he does not know it). He advises me to apply at wal-mart , or landscaping... Seriously I gave him a weird look. I said "why would I apply there ?" he said," you need experience you have none. ", I said " I do have experience I have worked at a library for four and a half years and I have interned at the DA's as well as a law firm, now a substitute teacher. I have experience enough to get me started". He somewhat laughed with his stupid smirky smile and said the following lines "those little jobs do not count that is not experience." I just rolled my eyes (inside not literally), and said ok....
He also told me that "graduate school is not for everyone, what you need to do is GET a JOB"
one time I was trying to have a stimulating conversation with him, about chaucer, he flat out told me "wow you read that kind of literature I did not know that you did"... I told him " I am an English Major"... The subject was then DROPED...
I hate that he treats me as if I will never achieve anything in life. I want nothing to do with him. I hate how he belittles my aunt as well... He is a hypocritical man that does not help others and he calls himself a christian....
