[QUOTE="Tiredof33, post: 517525, member: 13558"] ALL of our jobs in our area (small town) are old-boys network lol!!! My mother married my step-father after I had left home (dad died when I was 22) and he has one son that is a few years younger than me. He has zero social skills and drives everyone nuts! He does the same think with trying to impress everyone by chosing to discuss an obscure topic. I am not around him much, but we went out to eat for a Father's Day and he ordered a very well done hamburger platter. He went into detail telling the waitress how to start his first so it would be ready when everyone else's food was. Then he complained about how long it was taking to get our food when the restaurant was packed.He complained about his burger and I tried to tell him he had the wrong order. When he was over half way through eating he called the manager to complain. He complained about the auto tip because we had a large party. He didn't pay for anything, but he still complains lol!!! He doesn't let things go, we had to listen about the burger and tip for hours! He has started to let his grey hair grow and he pulls it back in a pony tail. He plays the guitar and told me he is a 'chick magnet' because women love musicians. He doesn't work full time because he is an only child and his mother has money, and he thinks he will also get everything from his dad. He actually went as far as asking his dad if he bought the house before he married my mother. If step-dad did then it automatically goes to him and not my mother upon step-dad's death. He assured my mother that she could live there with him too lol!!! His bio mother had told him this and step-dad spent money to assure everything was in order so this kid couldn't throw my mother out if he died before her. He has a BA but has only worked in minimum wage jobs and selling at flea markets. He is currently working as a cook at Shoney's. His mother is German and has a summer home in the US and doesn't always let him know she is in the states. She does pay for all of his medical and dental expenses. It is a shame that at 55 years old he is living with a lady that can't get him to move out! I'm sure she will eventually evict him, he is crying on my step dad's shoulder about how bad the situation is and I 'm sure he would move in with them if had the chance LOL!!! He was living in CA and step-dad had to pay for him to visit them in GA. One day he showed up on their doorstep unanounced and thought he was going to be allowed to stay. He drives step-dad crazy too. He grew up in a wealthy family and went to a boarding school in Germany. I am sure he has mental, emotional problems that were never diagonosed. He told my husband that his life style (drugs??) has made it hard for him to get motivated enough to work. My nephew with Downe's has an easier chance of getting a job that he does, because as you stated, he doesn't look like any thing is wrong with him. SAD!!! [/QUOTE]
