Op - a year now. He has been looking but not with quite the fervor a man with a family ‘should’. It’s sort of uneven maturity - he’s not like an open shut case of manchild and he has therapy but his struggles with emotional self regulation and sustained ambition and focus and even interest in finances and administration is all still very much a wip - and I would love to see him just make some more progress there as it has really eroded my respect [/quote]
Ever noticed how the white collar workers need therapy and won't get just any job, while the blue collar workers will take almost any job available? It's like the white collar ones live in their HEAD more than in real life with bills to pay.
Restaurants are hiring. I just helped a friend of a friend start in the business with no experience. He is about to apply at another  restaurant, because then he can work over 40-60+ hours a week in total.

I can see the class argument you're trying to make, but there are slackers and manboys in all categories. Plenty of "blue collar" folks are immature do-nothings too.[/quote]
