Am i in the wrong for not changing my train of thought

6 Comments

I know this asshole who constantly changes the goal post in what I should be doing with my life.
for a long time he has told me that I should get a job it will change how I view things so I did.
I work at a amazon warehouse for 15 dollars a hour for four days out of the week from 6:30 am to 5:00 pm.
dispite this he thinks its not a real job that I should move to scraping gum off the ground or picking up shit.
he is basically insulting me he believes its a crappy job.
I dont think so it pays well but he trys use it as a insult the asshole thinks im a janitor when thats not my job description not a knock on those who clean toilets and stuff they work hard and someone has to do it.
I have had this job for awhile now and it has not changed my view and he still talks shit he says if I have a family it would make me understand.
I take care of my niece as in she is basically my foster daughter and my views still are what he says it should be.
he is beyond toxic and im not going to deal with him anymore or am I in the wrong?

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    It sounds like he's in the wrong, a real friend would help you realize things, what he's doing is being a condescending prick

    There are those who work to pull you down in life - to their or below their level. It makes them feel important and superior. These people are not your friends and are not there to asset you to do better. Avoid them as much as possible.

    There are those who will tell you good things you are doing and encourage you to do better, to pursue your dreams and goals, that you can be more successful, etc. Hang around as many of those kinds of people you can...

    Sounds like you are on the right track on recognizing where that person fits into your life.

    I wish you the best... You can do very well in life

    I note that you don't refer to him as a 'friend', and that's good. Real friends want the best for their friends, and they encourage them to make the most of their life, but they do that in a positive way and don't pester, belittle or criticise.

    If you've looked into his suggestion and decided you don't want to do the job for some specific reason, then you've made a rational decision and he should accept that it's your life, and you have the right to decide what you do with it.

    It sounds like the guy might be one of those people who feels a need to control others. Lots of those people also have a strong need to believe they're always right, and it's an unfortunate fact that really stupid people aren't capable of understanding just how much they don't know, but they still have very firm opinions.

    The best way to deal with such people is to avoid them. If this isn't possible, you need to find some way of tuning them out.
