What brought this all to a boil in the first place?

I wouldn't know, and I frankly don't care to find out, as I fear the answer will dent my IQ for even hearing it.

I think this guy has a point.

Scy... you're a douchebag. And I don't mean that in the nicest possible way. I mean it as an insult.

You do not socialise well with others. You flip out over the smallest things. Frankly, I think bad references and worse interviews are the things stopping you getting employed. You are not suited for any job in the service industry. Or involving people. At all.

You are arrogant and inflexible.

‘Course... I like you. I know that might seem odd for some people to read... but I like Scy. Scy adds a touch of character to the forums, has interesting RPs.

So you want my advice (no? Better stop reading now then): apologise.

I imagine the situation is something like this:

Steve gives you lifts to your game night.
You don’t ever thank him. Because, let’s face it, you’re an asshole.
Steve doesn’t show one night. Maybe you’ve pissed him off. Maybe he’s sick or has a legit reason.
You take it personally and over-react. As you do with every situation.
Steve either complains to Eric or Eric decides to get on his high horse (Eric seems like a self righteous son of a bitch).
Eric sends you this bitchy e-mail.

Apologise to Steve and get him to have a word with Rich. Explain that you know that you don’t come across as the friendliest of people but you’re willing to work on your issues but that Eric is the one being an unreasonable diva over this – you’re willing to act like a responsible adult and make changes, does the group really want someone throwing a childish tantrum rather than someone who’s not perfect but is willing to change?

And Nag shows his ignorance of the issues and channels Eric.

I did thank Steve for the rides. Frequently. Just because Eric didn't hear them because he's never rode with us doesn't mean they didn't happen. Furthermore, I've been very civil at every game we had. I role played my characters, rolled my dice, chatted occasionally on the sidelines about movies or books or whatever. Aside from the casual swearing that one lets loose when in leisurely activities (such as "fuckin' awesome" or variants thereof) with friends, I've been a perfect gentleman.

Furthermore, when I emailed the group on the night for an explanation of why I wasn't picked up, while grumpy, I attacked no one in particular at all. I even mentioned the possibility of wondering whether Steve got in a car accident. He was able to answer hours later that he was fine and he just had a crisis at work and should have notified everyone when he didn't. I expressed my relief that he was okay.

I owe no apologies. Eric is simply a self-righteous douche with a stick up his ass.

Furthermore, I've had very civil interviews. And it's not just me that can't get work. My mother comes home from her shitty part time job with stories about mothers coming through her aisle talking about how their 20-something children can't find work either. Ergo, this implies the local economy and nothing I've done myself.

Also, I have great references. My previous boss stated I was one of the best workers she ever had. And she was a great manager. I was not the only employee that quit when she was fired. That Burger King had to refill a lot of positions afterward.

So Nag not win. Nag fail.

So kindly go fuck yourself.

Scy, have you ever considered to become an autonomous worker? That way, you wouldn't have to "search" for a job. You'd be your own boss and decide how much work you want to do. There are numerous sectors where you can work autonomously: finance, construction, repairing computers, private teaching, janitorial services, landscape maintenance, etc.
