My parents' main goal/wish for me is that I have a job - and that I have "zero ambition, unlike other young people!"

[The Wolf]

I am 29 years old. First job I have now, an internship and they are mad I'm not more motivated, more ambitious, more driven, more of a go-getter.

It's true... but WHY am I like that? I am depressed, have ADHD and autism, I look strange..... this impacted me, it left a mark on me.

That's basically their main goal. My work-life. That I'll be a behaved little worker bee in the very least - or actually, they want me to have a "good" job at the very least.
Work full time, be "ambitious" (they are mad at me that I'm not).

They think that - for me - that is life. Work 40-42 hours per week "because it's normal."

"Others are much more ambitious!" or "others have ambition!" (they only ever use this in the context of work, or my internship now).

They don't care that I will never have a girlfriend... a normal life. Just that I have a job, at least one that pays average. And that I am more ambitious, and that a purpose is not needed. Hell, they even expect that I have above average paying job.

I wish they would have a more differentiated perspective.

They don't factor in my depression.

 

[Sir Silentium]

Same here Wolfie, and whenever I am not working my parents are constantly on my back. I would work the whole week and relax temporarily on the weekend during uni breaks, yet I'd still get called lazy and that I need to do better.

It's never enough, some people are just never contempt with the effort.

literally in the same situation

They think we're machines and not human

 

[PLS HALP ME]

I know how you feel, friend. I identify with you so much. You're not alone; nobody understands our pain.

it's so hard for us autistic people to hold our jobs. To top it off, what really is our motivation to work hard? Don't feel guilty of not being like normies. It's not our fault.

Yes, agree. I have a full time job. I get 2 home office days because of my autism and social anxiety. That's nice. But 3 days in the office and working 40-41 hours per week is still exhausting for me.

It is an internship, and I'm 29. So, quite old. But because of my mental health issues as well as difficulty talking to and communicating with people, and being among them, I am behind in everything. I only ever studied online. And now I am an intern! I'm 5'4" so I look short, and I know people think I'm a weird bird.

They also said, your only motivation is to work from home, stay at home, find ways like a weasel, to stay at home. Last week, today and tomorrow I will work from home, due to exceptional circumstances.

Concerning your points: yes. My parents, especially my dad, answered to this point that you made - something very similar to "motivation to do well, get along, make money, a career, be promoted..."

I would have more motivation with a girlfriend!

Do you think my thinking makes sense?

Just focus on working and getting that paycheck

You’re doing it for yourself and your own wellbeing at the end of the day, not muh foids or muh girlfriend

 

[Anonymoutron]

My parents used to be the same until I got a job. I’m working full time now but it must have been so depressing for you constantly being compared to other ‘normal’ people by your own parents. It’s way harder for ND people like us to get into work anyway. At least you’re trying, and you got an internship. You’re doing great brocel, just focus on you and hopefully you’ll be able to move out in a couple years

That's the only thing on the minds of retarded normies: be a good wage slave and work yourself to death, even if it doesn't really get you anywhere.
That's why our country is such a gay labor camp with internet and Bundesliga lol

Unfortunately, workaholism runs deep in the German national psyche. That is why the elites can exploit us so splendidly, and the stupid "Kartoffeln" (average Germans) willingly feed millions of rapefugees.

What is the point of even making an effort in this system anymore? Even from a normie's perspective, it's actually completely idiotic.

Not to mention your perspective. I think your parents are simply rude and brazen, and apparently they don't really care about your suffering.

Being a slave is a drag, I admit, but if you don't work, how are you going to live?

I work because I have to. I dont have anyone to rely on and support a neet lifestyle

Do what is necessary to survive.

In my country, it is impossible to survive; it is easier to starve.

As for OP, sorry to hear this. My parents ain't better. They are shit in a different way.

They are also typical wageslave slave minded people, so they blame me instead of the system.

Typical boomers of course. Nothing I can do about it.

My father even wants a foid cousin of mine to inherit their house and money instead of me. jfl

I told him that he can show that shit back up his ass and that I'd rather starve and let his bloodline die out then.

Absolute fucking retard.

Imagine having a child just to not give a fuck about it and then wonder why it is failing in life.

Boomers, man, they cannot be reformed.

 

[UndeadDeadMan]

unlike other young people!​

Pure bullshit, most young people don't want to work (and they are 100% justified). This is either gaslighting or sheer stupidity.

they are cherry-picking young people who are very ambitious- or those who are not literally deformed and 1.62m like myself.
I look extremly strange, many people stare or joke about me (I wrote this many times on the forum, and it always hurts typing it down).
My motivation and self-worth are near zero. How can I be motivated and work if I'm always seen as a joke?

Boomers and Gen-X (boomer-lite) are worker drones who pride themselves on being good little workers. Millennials are cringe, but at least they had a sense of "your job isn't you"
