girl quit job lady this lady quit her job and traveled the world um all right
here we go my
girl quit wait my girl comes home why did he feel like there was something else
in here did i miss
one of these things maybe not all right my girl comes home early the other day
and tells me she
quit her job i work full-time in a metal shop jesus christ what are you a blacksmith
and i go to school
full-time for engineering uh we also have two beautiful kids we cannot afford
our houses
our house cars etc without her working and she acts like i'm a bad guy when i
say when i get on
her about it oh jesus i don't know what i should do i'm thinking of leaving her
because this is not
the first time she's done this and in the total seven years we've been together
she's worked
about two and a half two and a half years of around 10 jobs wait she has worked
about two and a half
years of around 10 jobs you mean and i'm guessing you're saying she's had 10
jobs and collectively
worked two and a half years can't take the financial stress anymore what's your
advice
um uh first thing i would do i'd downsize your life
just be like all right well look if you're not going to work then we got we got
to do something
here um that's incredibly selfish and um look she obviously doesn't want to
work she wants to be at
home she wants to be with the kids so you need to make enough money to
basically you know treat her
like a third kid um so your lifestyle is going to have to go down then if that's
what she i would
just sit down and be like can i ask you a question do you want to just stay
home and be with the kids
you know and let her fucking flip out and scream and yell and all that and just
don't lose your cool just say to her is that what you want okay because i need
to know that
okay so i don't keep thinking that that we're going to be dual income and
making financial
decisions that way i can already tell you right now dude that the fact that you're
working full
time and she's working full time and if the second she fucking quits you're
fucked you guys are living
beyond your lifestyle beyond your means you shouldn't be living like that so
you're basically the two of
you guys are spending all the money that you're making that's that's no way to
live all right
you need to be
you need you need to downsize your life is basically it i would drive uh you
know use toyota or a honda
those fucking things never die i'd get one of those i downsize and then you
know i mean i don't think
you just quit on a relationship and walk out on two kids but the stress has to
be fucking brutal and if
she's being a fucking baby about it um you know that's uh you know this is one
of these fucking
things that you know be a nice change on one of those chick shows you know a
full broad sit around
fucking talking about women's stuff they never talk about this type of shit
because this is this would
probably be considered sexist if you brought it up that's a hell of a fucking
thing for her to be doing to
you um i would just you just got to lay it on the line just sit her down and
just say listen is this
what you want to do um i need to know that because i'm not going through this
again all right and i
would just say you've had 10 jobs in the last seven years and you've worked
collectively collectively
about two and a half of those seven years okay when you quit a job like that
just quit a job and
have no other job it puts unbelievable stress on me and it's not fair to me
okay so i need to know
do you not want to work do you just want to stay home with the kids because if
you do we're going to
have to downsize our lives dramatically if you want to keep living like this
you need to get a job
all right and if she flips out about that type of thing um i mean that's a
tough one i i guess i
would be like when she flipped out be like all right you know something scream
and yell and get it
out of your system but you have 48 hours to sit down with me and discuss this
like an adult and cut a
plan okay or i need to make a decision because i'm not gonna i'm not gonna live
my life with this
level of financial stress um something along those lines because i'll tell you
what she's doing to you
is unbelievably immature and fucking selfish when you need dual income and you
got two kids at home
you just don't quit a fucking job all right
jesus fucking christ what if you did that
you know what i mean i'm telling you this right here when that fucking guy was
sitting there talking
that guy saying like oh you should fucking leave your job and go travel around
the fucking planet
this is why you don't do that what you're doing sir busting your ass trying to
get ahead
that's what you do when you're fucking young okay it makes your life a hell of
a lot fucking easier
as you get older okay because the older you fucking get you got to be somewhere
you know what i mean
like all they want to hire young people generally fucking speaking you have to
be at a certain place
by a certain fucking age generally speaking or they're not going to give you a
shot
okay it's like that old fucking thing about the fucking what was it what was it
those two animals
one of them was storing away food the other one was running around like a
fucking jerk off and then
the storm finally hits and the ants fucking eating and then the turtles uh beat
the hair however the
fucking story goes um
i gotta tell you this you know i sacrificed a lot to get where i'm at and i
missed out on a lot of
shit but the shit that i on the back end that i ended up getting to do okay you
know there was a
whole bunch of stuff that i missed socially just fun stuff so-called regular
shit that i missed because
and i slept on a futon like i've told you a zillion times till i was about 36
37 years old
all right but the outside of that was i got to perform at madison square garden
i got to play drums with slash and duff and guns and roses you know what i mean
that's insane
but you got to be willing to stay on the futon till you're pushing 40
and laying there in the loneliness of that with the voices creeping in your
head of doubt and you have
to beat those things down as they're telling you did i did i make a horrible
mistake um
so what you're doing sir you're working full-time and you're going to school
full-time for engineering
okay if your wife no offense could just ride it out
for a couple of years all right until you get your engineering degree you get
on your feet this is what
old school couples used to do okay they worked more as a team because generally
speaking
divorce was looked down upon and they always try to make it look like and there
was all these women
getting beaten and they just stayed in there like every woman was getting the
slapped out of her all right i'm not saying there wasn't women getting
fucking you know the shit kicked out of them all right but there's a lot of
fucking people to just
throw in the fucking towel because it's hard and then you're going to get with
somebody else and
what it's going to be fucking easy it it is hard but this is this is like some
shit you need to iron this out and she needs to get her fucking head screwed on
straight and realize
that she's got to fucking support you by keeping up her end of the
bullshit while you become an engineer and then you move up the fucking ladder
and at some point
she's going to get what i think she wants which is what she's going to get to
stay home alone
um nia can you come over just help me finish off this podcast i know you don't
want to your shoulders
literally just slumped i'll read this really quickly i know you're tired nia we're
all tired
are you going to sit there like i'm going to scold you like a little kid no i'm
just tired
i know it's 1 15 in the morning all right this guy uh his girl comes home he's
not even your wife
no but you got two kids girl comes home early the other day and she tells me
she quit her job i work
full-time in a metal shop and i'm going to engineering school uh i'm going to
school full-time for
engineering we also have two beautiful kids we cannot afford our houses and our
cars etc without her
working and she acts like i'm a bad guy when i say when i get on her about it i
don't know what i should do
i'm thinking of leaving her because this is not the first time she's done this
in the total seven
years we've been together she's worked about two and a half of those years and
had about 10 different
jobs i can't take the financial stress anymore what's your advice nia renee
hill yeah i mean i think
you should definitely talk to her about it and if you feel like she's not
pulling her weight in your
situation then that's a problem so yeah it's stressful if he's carrying the
burden they have like two kids and
whatever i mean is she just lying around the house all day i mean is she at
least
you know taking care of the kids and make sure they have lunches and all that
stuff or is it
just all falling on him you know that's really yeah well they need the money
all right so so i'm
all right so i'm working okay so i okay if that's what their financial
situation is where they both
need to be working then they both need to be working but i don't know how
leaving her is going to
to alleviate the financial strain but no he's got kids he's and then she's
going to bleed him dry
because she'll be pissed i think yeah i don't know but yeah she needs to get it
together
i'm sorry all right all right i'm sorry i'm sorry jesus christ all right sorry
well i should have
known better when i asked her she shows lou slump she just literally came out
of the bedroom
to grab something that's just going back to going to sleep i'm like oh you want
