I'm worried that if things go well and I actually get a job like this I might get demotivated and end up quitting like I did my previous jobs. It just hasn't really set in that I need to work to survive since my mom and dad have provided for me and would continue to do so if I wasn't looking for employment. Does anyone have any advice for staying upbeat and committed to working through these feelings of apathy and uncertainty?

It makes a lot of sense that you have no motivation to work given that your financial needs are being met. If your parents are happy to provide for you, and you have no career ambitions, then why work? The only thing I can think of is self esteem, and also being employed is a big boost in the dating world.

Why scum? If your parents can afford it and don't have qualms supporting you its a nice life without anyone being harmed? If I was a parent I would not unconditionally fund my kids into adulthood, because I think you do become a better person having some purpose in life and that usually comes from working (but it doesn't have to!)

Settle down, I've been working since high school. Just thought it was an interesting point of discussion

Yeah, probably not, so I'll drop it. Something about SHOAH NUFF's original post just rubbed me the wrong way.

I would suggest saving up a few months of expenses as an emergency fund before moving out, even though you want to move out ASAP. even a months worth of expenses can be the difference between missing a rent payment when you are between jobs.
