Parents want me to move out on 2013 but I'm not sure what to do?
Long story short im 19 now and my parents are pushing for me to move out next year. I'll be 20 in October. There not going to throw me out but they do want me to at least show progress that Im trying to. I would like to move out but the thought of taking the first step is a daunting one.
As far as I'm concerned the main thing holding me back is my job. Im an apprentice officer worker but im been taken for a ride. Ive been there since march 2012 but still get paid £2.60 its disgusting. I work dam hard and deal with a lot of stress there and still get treat badly not to mention the lack of any training whats so ever, I've never wanted to work in an office. After having no job for 7 months I ended up looking for and taking up this apprentice.
I feel trapped and extremely confused as to what to do. What I want to do is leave the #### hole and find anything, anything at all that pays minimum wage. I've even thought of working at burger king, McDonalds, ... anything will be an improvemt from where I am, it will only be short term. I understand that working conditions probably wont improve but at least I have an earning.
Now again my parents arent happy about me thinking of taking up a job at some where like a fast food restaurant and i think they assume I am over exaggerating my job when I talk about it but it really is terrible.(I wont go in to to much detail then it will sound like I'm moaning). The people working there have even recomended I leave whilst Im not reliant on the job. In the mean time my priority is to finish learning to drive and get my classic mini on the road. The hope is that by doing so it will pave a first step towards being independent.
Do you mind me asking about any of your experiences moving out and learning to stand on your own 2 feet. Personaly im terrified. It comforts me a little that my cousin who is the same age is in the same boat and is thinking of arranging living arrangements with me.

Is this apprentice helping you for you future career? If not, I'd say go find another job. Finding an apartment with somebody like a friend, or in your case, your cousin, is a great idea. It cuts the cost of living IN HALF. Just make sure that whoever you think about living with is a good person and is honest. Because recently my best friend moved into an apartment for the first time with 2 other "friends" and all they do is smoke weed everyday and steal food, needless to say that he wants to move back with his parents. Fast food places aren't the best places to work, but they're definitely not the worst. If it's truly better than your current apprenticeship then I would check into that. Being a stocker at a grocery store or walmart is also a good idea. I make $8.50 starting out ($1.25 more than minimum wage), just being a cashier and stocker at the local grocery store

I left home at 17 and I was scared, like you. I decided to get a live-in job and went to work in a hotel on the coast for the season to see where it might lead. It was a good move as I had bored and lodging although the wages were poor I had no other overheads. I went as a trainee receptionist. You might be lucky in finding something like this. Failing that I would suggest you find a better paid job and get a flat share where the onus of all the bills is not left to you. Good luck

Move in with your cousin, take that step it will be ok, you will like the independence away from your parents. Get into school, look up grants and financial aide. Go work at one of the fast food places, no big deal, your parents will see. I wish you were my son, I would be so proud that you have the initiative to do something. But you will do great not living with them go for it. Prove to them and yourself you can do it.
