Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

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

Today, I texted my dad and told him I was getting married in five months. His reply? "I gotta work that day." FML

That's the same reason my dad gave for not being able to come to my grad. Except he actually did have to work... Anyway, FYL, OP. Especially if you really wanted him there and he just couldn't be bothered.

or he might be depressed and - not think himself worthy to be there; - horrified at the humiliation he would experience with all the other employed parents being there; - humiliated by not being able to offer you a graduation present; - etc.
