>she just got a call last Friday about being hired at some real estate firm and has been talking about it constantly
>being that it's April Fools, I break my days of silence with a joke in front of my family
>"Hey mom, if you think that's good news, I got a job too"
>smile and before I can say "as a stay-at-home son", I hear a gasp
>mom stops talking
>dad spills his coffee

What the fuck do I do mates? Even if I do get a job, I have no skills related to construction. I've never built anything past Ikea furniture.
this is a good quality post and I can relate to it

This is actually really funny I laughed quality thread
Go to construction sites and ask for a job on Monday

Just come clean. The longer you sit the worse it gets.
" I need to tell you something. When I said I got a job it was an April fools day prank, but when I saw how proud you were and how happy you were, I just froze... I'm so sorry, but seeing you proud has encouraged me to look for a job and change. I have applied for over 100 construction jobs. I feel like I want to do something with my life, but I just feel like I don't have the skill.
I didn't know how me not having a job was effecting the whole family, even * insert sisters name* cried!"

>*redneck shakes your soft girly hands and notices how weak you are*
>"what's your experience?"
>*you nervousvly mutter a barely coherant response about not having much but willing to work*
>*redneck pities you but overrides pity with disgust like his pa taught him to because it's a cold harsh world*
>"get the fuck out of here"
>*you run away crying and spilling spaghetti*
as a NEET, why would you think bringing more attention to your employment status would be a good idea? you would've been better off coming out as a faggot so your dad could've beat the shit out of you before you had the chance to say "april fools"

this op, do this
this is only way to save face
>>35967091
why are dads always so retarded and brutish?
>>35966892
Your choices now are go to construction sites and beg for a job, even cleaning port o potties
Or
Become An Hero.
Both require not being a coward though, so good luck.
damn, that shit is wack
Such is life with the 'tism.
