I decided to get a summer job at home. After a particularly hard day at my job I came home and plop myself on the couch inside at which point my parents, my dad in particular, jokes about basketball not being a real job so I don't know how to cope and once I get into the real world I'll have rough days all the time. My brother constantly wants me to get a real job; join the workforce instead of  "mooch off my parents in the off-season." But then again I play basketball and I make a living doing it. How is what I'm doing not a real job? I still have the same pressures to perform to be presentable in the public eye and represent my team in a professional manner. It kind of hurts my self-esteem when you don't think your parents are proud of you because they see the kids you grew up with have moved on with their lives, have started their own families and have a traditional career. Then you have a grown adult daughter at home with no male callers or even the traditional living situation and career. What do I do?" What does it mean to actually work at thirty? How is the true meaning of success as perceived by our loved ones at thirty? Do we communicate our struggles clearly enough? Can we handle each situation as measured and level headed as we can at this age? Should we struggle with the concept that the perception is reality as a generation? Can parents overreact when their children make the same mistakes they made at their age? Do parents let us make the same mistakes before trying to pose a life lesson for us? Should parents project their own failures to the extent that they destroy experiences for us as young adults? Are we just too sensitive as Millennials? Join us as we discuss #WorkingAtThirty and why Parents Just Don't Understand... With all great change comes great responsibility - join us next week for more into the minds of Turg & Randy Z.
