Family, always like to try to attack me as a "black sheep"
This year, I purposely went with a huge headache and kept as quiet as possible, anytime I voiced my opinion, it was seen as a verbal conflict/argument/etc.
My family is legitimately unable to discuss normal shit.
-Two female family members where talking about how they get to be confrontational and aggressive with coworkers and their managers with their "we are empowered" bullshit.
I try to explain to them in reality, that's not how it works, if your confrontational, HR will document it and on re-occurrence, will gladly pay out a 1-2 week severance to have the team operate stress free.
I was attacked for this and they refused to actually hear that entire sentence I just said.
-Explained to them that if you can pay your rent with your credit card, its the biggest way to build credit, if your landlord or property management company allows it.
I was told I was wrong, and they repeated the same thing to me: Only if your landlord allows it. They just wanted to say I was wrong and go at me and have me "overreact",
I didn't over react once but they repeatedly kept saying this:
"Your screaming, your yelling, your soo angry, etc",
as I stated, I made it a point to over train on xmas and gave myself a wicked headache, that's the worst part, I was amazed at the fact that my family had the communications skills of an actual child, like all of them, and they really wanted to project that it was me as hard as they can, it was actually legit childish.
-They tried to have unrealistic ideals of job hunting (over 300 applications in 4 months, only calls are for real jobs that are too far away), tried to say to ignore direction, etc.
When I explained to them that if your given anytype of direction, "go apply online", etc, you cannot ignore their direction and come back and try to give them another resume, they will be absolutely appalled at the fact that you cannot follow a two word request, they would be absolutely annoyed with you.
Tl;DR: Me, because my family wanted it to be that way instead of discussing and having a logical constructive conversation, instead its "its always you getting mad".
If I ever have children, they will NEVER go to family events like Christmas on my side, I expect my family to treat my children the same way they treated me, so I would NEVER allow them near my children.
