My husband and I are tired of blushing in front of our friends and acquaintances because of the divorce.
Mother-in-law can't get away from us, she keeps demanding that we find a job for her youngest. The mother-in-law can also be understood: her youngest son is on her back, does nothing, and eats often and with appetite.
She can't bear to throw out this twenty-five-year-old, and where will he go without money, but feeding him is becoming more and more expensive. Rafał, her husband's brother, has an education, but somehow it hasn't been useful to him in life. In principle, it's not a big deal, it's a common problem, my husband couldn't get a job with a diploma either, but in addition to his reluctance to work with a diploma, Rafał has a reluctance to work in general.
It's hard everywhere, he can't do anything, and he doesn't want to overwork. At first, his mother-in-law tried to find him a job herself, but something went wrong. He had one job, another, a third – he worked everywhere for three months and each time he complained that it was hard for him. He had to work with numbers, but he's a humanities major. Accounting was out of the question.
Why would he overwork himself when he knows there's a bed at home, his mother pays the utility bills, she made soup, so his son can eat in peace. After looking through all the employment options, the caring mother decided to pester us. She said we had more contacts. My husband scratched the back of his head and went to call his friends.
The first one agreed to help and we sent my brother-in-law there for a job interview. He got in, started working, everything seemed to be going well, but two months later he decided he was leaving – it's hard for him, he's not sure, his head is swelling. To put it mildly, my friend is unhappy with this arrangement, because it turned out that he had hired someone, and that person took a place and left. And so we burned ourselves three more times. After the first time we didn't want to get involved, but we still went along with my mother-in-law, who demanded our help.
Now, however, neither I nor my husband intend to further ruin relationships with good people and plant a “rotten egg” in their lives. My brother-in-law doesn't want to work, he keeps refusing because everything is hard for him. It's hard for him no matter what kind of work he does. You have to get up in the morning, go somewhere, and then (oh my!) work. This is not a good solution for him.
I can see from my husband that he will soon have enough of his mother's complaints and something will happen. He has been putting up with her attacks for too long, which is not really his style. I don't even want to think about what will happen when he has had enough. Rafał is still on his mother's back and is happy with everything in his life. He doesn't even pretend to look for a job anymore. My mother-in-law prefers to ignore it, but she is angry with us for not getting him a normal job.
