I'm so sorry, EJ. How frustrating for you.

So he is not even interested enough to look for jobs himself? Did you find the job for him also that he got fired from? Maybe that is why he sabotaged himself at the job--he was never even interested in it and didn't find it for himself. This would be oh so frustrating. Do you think he could be depressed? Or does he just not want to work?

I don't have any good insights, I'm sorry. The old saw comes to mind, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink." It almost sounds like his sabotaging his new job was some kind of passive aggressive statement. Has he ever gone for counseling to try to solve his employment problem?

Hang in there. I feel for you.

Take care,
sunny
