WTF, dude. That guys sounds like the loser that's trying to keep you down with him. Well they do say that misery loves company. Like why the hell does he care about what you're trying to achieve so much and if you want to get a part time job that sucks and buy a bloody car?

Sucks that you have to deal with him. Credit to you for hanging in there and pulling yourself out of the depression hole that that guy was trying to keep you in. Hope you get that job! Keep your head up, man! At least you're brave enough to go for it! Way more balls than so many of us!
