Why is everyone always coming down on the mid-20's graduate still living at home? I mean, I had no organized co-op programs to pay me $18/hour, no rich grandparent, $6,800/year tution, and still paid for 80% of my tution and expenses on my own - to clarify, thats roughly $34,000 becuase I took a break in the middle without dropping some classes properly and lost $7,000 - with only one year falling back on OSAP for some help. I only graduated 4 months ago, but turn 25 in December, and by nearly anyone's standards I feel like a social outcast.
I understand how in some situations the "unemployed man living at home with his parents" could be considered to definately be a bad thing, and trust me, I know the reasons. But here I am taking advantage of some parental hospitality while I get in the air after graduating and I constantly feel lumped in with a very black & white classification. Since normally someone in my situation would only be 22 turning 23, the age thing doesn't help with one's pre-judgement of my situation.
I hope something in terms of a career job comes together soon, I need to get out of here as soon as fucking possible. My hypothetical future relationships depend on it.
