<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

After several years of job searching and holding down crap jobs, I finally was able to get a great job within my field (engineering). The catch? It's on the opposite side of the country from where I am. I currently live in Ohio, and my new job is in Washington. And since I will be taking all of my stuff with me, I have to drive. It's a 32 hour drive (not counting stops), and I would have to pull a small U-haul trailer behind my truck.

I asked my parents if either of them would be willing to make the drive with me, since I'm hesitant to drive by myself, and moving all of my stuff into my apartment in Washington is going to be really hard without a second person helping me (It's a studio apartment on the 3rd floor of an apartment building). Both of them said no, for different reasons. Mom said she wouldn't be able to get the time off on such short notice, which is understandable. But when I asked my dad, he gave me a huge lecture on 'taking care of myself' and how I have to handle my own problems and not make trouble for other people.

I would have been fine just getting a no from them, I understand that it's a long trip and they might not want to waste their vacation days on it. But what my dad said is really bothering me. It hurt a lot to hear that from him, and I don't know how to deal with it.

I'm leaving in three weeks, and I'm not sure what to say to him about it. Should I even try to talk to him about it? After I move, I'm only going to see him maybe once a year if that. Should I just let it go? (If it matters, I have been living at home and paying rent to my parents since I was 18.)
<bot>: Dad was really rude to me when I asked him for help, and I'm not sure if I should try to talk to him about it or just let it go, since I'm leaving in three weeks.
