Our CEO kept saying 'we're a family here' until I asked for a vacation day to attend my actual family's reunion

and suddenly I was 'abandoning the team'.

I've been trying to buy a house in my area

But the only thing I can afford is a strong opinion about gentrification.

I asked my boomer dad for advice on buying a house

He said 'just work harder and cut back on avocado toast', I said 'dad, I'm a freelance writer, my only income is from avocado toast reviews'

My parents always said they wanted me to have a better life than them.

Now it looks like the only thing I'm inheriting is their economic anxiety.
