My son just got a new job (he goes through them quickly) and it seems that soon after he starts he begins to complain. He gets agitated either talking about how others don't do their work or complaining about feeling bad and having to call off. He gets very moody and angry surrounding jobs. This is a pattern that always ends with him quitting or in the past, getting fired.

I suspect his lack of confidence at this point makes him self-destruct. In other words I think he finds a rationale to quit before he is fired.

The good news is that I think I've convinced him to talk to a counselor. But I am worried that another job loss will set him further back. I don't know that I have a question but would like to hear back from anyone who has experienced something similar. I'm just a dad trying to help.

Thank you.
