January 10th
My uncle asks me about my brother, about whether he is still looking for a job.
I explain he's not been hired because most employers are looking for people who can work through Chinese New Year. He asks if my brother will still be on his break after Chinese New Year, and I say no, that he'll be heading back to college.
He says okay and that there isn't a point since the job will only last a month, and I think he means that nobody would think to hire someone for such a short term and I am inclined to agree.
He then says it's okay and that my brother can just follow my dad around.
And I want to scream at him and say that my father is not doing anything either.
But I do not respond.
