Okay so after a massive blowout tonight, there is a good chance I'm now out on the streets of North Brisbane
What Happened:
The course of today was much like every other day, I woke up cleaned, since its monday I do a full clean of the house, bathroom,kitchen and and then vacuum. Also did my course reading in the morning, i did all this cleaning etc while everyone else went down to a swimming hole, I did the cleaning without complaints.
Again it's monday, so it was my turn to cook, it was a BBQ after slaving over a BBQ for 80 minutes for feeding 14 people, i recieved no thank you as usual. The rule in the house is "you cook, you clean" i finished 3rd out of the 14ppl, cleaned what i could and went to my room in wait of when they would finish, over heard the youngest daughter (my brothers fiance) mention the house rule, i walked out and just let them know I would clean once everyone had finished so i could do it properly.
This then broke out into her yelling at me because i was being disrespectful with the words of you need to be out within a week.
So yeah I got a week and then im fukn scared :S :S
so apparently my brother has now spoken to the parents and explained that with everything that had been happening, eg cooking and cleaning without any praise or even a thank you etc had just been bottling up and i just snapped
not sure where this leaves things or not, but hopefully means not getting kicked out which might give m some time to secure a job and some perma hours
Dont take this the wrong way but i would be on the streets right now asking every shop for a job if i were you, I would even offer to wash cars or clean houses, basically any form of manual labour. Im not sure how the employment situation is but i would swallow my pride and do any job that i thought was beneath me previously and for lesser than minimum wages.
Dont stay in that house anymore, go look for any job, work in the freaking mine for all i care. Because when you look back at your time spent in that house being treated like garbage, it really destroys your self-esteem.
Good luck.

yeah atm my name is down at every labour hire company within 50kms
im trying to get out as fast as i can to a place where i can stop feeling like im walking on egg shells and if i make 1 mistake thats it kind of thing
though my brother standing up the way he did today was cool, he said if he sees me actively applying for jobs and trying to get employment while i study and i get kicked out he'll come with me
living in a house with randoms sets you up for situations like this. just dont do it. if you have to live in a house where there are literally rules around who cooks/cleans when, you're living with people who dont have the common decency to look after themselves without being told

Although this might be the hardest thing for you to do I think that you should do something nice for her and ask her to forgive you, show her and everyone else that your grateful for what you have and where you live and by this i don't mean you should just do your chores, really go out of your way to show it. This forum probably isn't the best place to go to for advice as (no offence guys) its mostly filled with guys who would give an arm and a leg to live away from their parents and although it seems like the best option now, to get away from the people who are looking after you, in the future you may regret it. I don't know you at all, however if I were in your situation I would take the time to sit down and really think of why they would treat you the way they do and when you do, don't for one second think that you deserve it, people are people and some people do terrible things however everyone acts the way they do for a reason and perhaps the way they treat you has something to do with the way you treat them. I know in my case I had to do similar chores and I resented it however I made sure to show how grateful I was (even though I didn't realise it) by even just a small things as joining in on conversation, or helping someone else with their chores even though it wasn't my turn. I guess what I'm trying to say is that running away is never the best way to solve a problem, the greatest person is a person who will keep trying no matter how long it takes to solve whatever challenges life has to throw at them. Unfortunately perhaps your greatest challenge has come when you are quite young and it feels weird to say that because your the same age as me however it is never too early to step up and be the man who you yourself want to be for the rest of your life. Goodluck man!
Ok, most of this story just doesn't add up in my honest opinion.
If your brother asked you to move from Adel to live with his clearly insane fiance and ******* 9 other people and you spend all your savings in order to do so I would expect your brother to stand up for you. Have a serious talk to him, borderline talk to Police sounds like this woman could be violating all kinds of human rights/OHS terms having this many people under her care.
Have you tried looking in to youth hostels? Try posting on gumtree explaining your situation... Are you on Centrelink? If so you could easily pay rent to say in a shit house with some randoms...
I moved out when I was 18 and although I wasn't kicked out per say I was treated pretty poorly after coming out, your situation is definitely worse but keep your head up, moving out isn't as hard as you think mate. Hopefully shit gets better for you man doesn't sound like you deserve to live under this roof tyranny. As the other people said just look for jobs like crazy, cut your losses and get the **** out of there. You are over 21 so most of the free government money should be easy to get given your situation.
Big ups to Flamga for offering a place, awesome stuff

Dont take that kind of behaviour, if the rule is 'you cook you clean' so be it, but after you cook and clean for 14 people i think a thankyou or atleast a respectful attitude towards you is called for.
In your situation i would either
1. Find a mate in Brisbane to crash at until you get a job
OR
2. hitch hike down to Adelaide then stay at Flamga's until you have some sort of income then sort stuff out.
OR
3. Become pro SC2 player. #Kappa
