I just got a "career" job out of college and I am slated to start a week after graduation, so we're going down soon to check out the apartments or houses in the area.

My boss mentioned that he would love to meet us for lunch when we come down :Q :Q :Q My mom is fine but my dad is a nutcase! :eek:


edit: at least I'm better off than this guy ;)

Everybody's family is a little weird. You'll be fine. It could even help break the ice when you start work.

"I couldn't believe it when my dad started shoving rolls down his pants. I'm so sorry that you had to see that. He didn't take his pills that morning."

No, it's an engineering job, and I'm not going to turn down his offer, I just think it will be awkward for me to eat with them all!

Just fake it,
Bring a sister or brother and tell him your folks were busy.

Alcohol helps to simmer down some people...for others , hell breaks loose. Use with caution.
