Just found out about these bitches and they don't constrict your ankles at all. They're so good. Highly recommend if tight socks are ick for you.

*edit autocorrect: meant to say "burnout" in title

I can handle full time work without going into burnout because I could go home and recover. I moved back in with my parents when I was unemployed. I have a job again, but it pays less and now the housing market is so bad I can't afford to move out. The problem is my parents are sending me into autistic burnout because they are always, and I mean genuinely most hours of most days always, home and do not stop talking. I WFH and can't even go into the kitchen for water without them starting a conversation about something unimportant. I have tried to tell them to give me space so I can conserve my energy because I'm working and I want my breaks for myself and they respect it for like a day or two then go right back at it. My room is right off the kitchen/living room (where my parents and their barking dogs always are) so it is always noisy no matter what. When I lived alone I could take breaks from work and actually recover and then I could occasionally go out and socialize. But here it is so exhausting that doing anything other than work, even basic chores or low key socializing, feels herculean. I think my only option is to kill my budget and just move out again, but even that is taking so much energy to plan. Does anyone have any other ideas?

Love this place, and it's iconic to Encinitas, but I've literally never met a friendly employee here. They all seem miserable. What's behind the scenes like?
