Today, I found out that I was denied for work study eligibility by my college. I went to my financial advisor to ask why. It wasn't my grades or attendance. Apparently my father makes too much money for me to get a job at the school. My dad was fired 3 months ago and has been out of work since. FML

Today, nearly Christmas, my dad got mad because I don't have enough money for holiday festivities. I can't afford things because I haven't gotten my paycheck yet. I work for my dad. FML

Today, I found out that my mom called my boss informing him that I am a little behind on some college projects. She felt he should know that she fears I might not be able to graduate on the planned date. My boss had already offered me a permanent job. I may not get that job now. FML

Communication breakdown
Today, my dad drove me to work which is an hour away. Twenty minutes into the job, I was told, "Didn't we tell you last week? We let you go." Clearly, no, they didn't. I had to wait one awkward hour, with my colleagues who knew I was fired before I did, for my dad to collect me. FML

Your dad needs some tough love. Remind him that going will make him a little less of an asshole, and you'll take that into consideration years from now when your constantly reminding him how much better your is than his ever was.

On that day, he would rather volunteer at his former workplace than attend your graduation. (He might even pay them.) Are you the valedictorian, salutatorian or otherwise speaking at the ceremony? If not, it's really a big waste of time for your family to suffer for three or four hours to see your 5 seconds of fame.

Agreed. My grad was boring as hell, and for some reason I was the only one who really didn't care whether anyone in my family came or not.

I know what you can do! Become President of the United States then don't invite him to the Inauguration. That will show him.

Wow. I know my parents consider it an obligation to support their daughter (me) by both attending my graduation, enough to try to work things out enough to be at the same event for the first time in 6 years since their divorce. I'm sorry your father's an unsupportive jerk, OP. You can make it far in life without him.
