Going to graduate soon, and my mum is like faster go find job, any job just take. I recently declined a super lowball 2.5k job, and she has been nagging at me ever since, totally regret telling her.
Her perspective is like, lowball or what, she doesnt unds, hv money go work, people looking for jobs shld get any job they can.
Then I ask her, so you want me to be depressed and low pay? Then my mum said, still got pay what, how difficult can the work be, isn’t it just typing (tech job btw), dont think too much, interview say OT and weekend work just scaring ppl, wont happen one.
She has only worked pt jobs w low qualifications so she dont unds me, like at all. And she die die dont believe me when I said OT work no extra pay, she kept insisting that OT work is good cos got extra money.
Everyday is like this. “Pay ok what, any pay just say yes la, there is no pay that is low, the companies know what to pay you, dont big mouth. Work tiring meh? Sit down get fat only, move fingers.
Unhappy resign also ok what, got money”. Wha she so money minded I really cannot tahan. Everything is money money money, not like we living in rental flat or damn poor.
Ok I really dont unds her and it’s not like I’m shaking my legs at home or not paying my part of the bills, she keeps nagging me to find any job, like literally 2k also ok range to her.
How to get through to her idk. Other parents hv high expectations of their kids, then there’s mine, 2.5k is very good for a degree holder, on the other extreme end.
I give up alrdy, just job search in silence.
