Why is everyone nagging me for my life choices and me not working harder?

I’ve been working at my new job for a couple months. I work at a grocery store. I applied for a part time position because that’s all they had available and I’ve been working there since last July. I got let go from my other job which I worked full time.

My parents have been nagging me about asking my boss to give me more hours because my hours aren’t enough. I work Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9am to 2pm so I work 15 hours a week.
My dad has been very hard on me because he said I’m not putting enough effort to better myself and encouraged me to ask for more hours since I’m not going to college or anything. He said all I do is work part time, hang with friends and party too much. I’m young, I’m supposed to have fun and enjoy life.
Tuesdays and Thursdays I just sit at home on my computer. I’m sick of my parents nagging at me for not applying myself and I’ve worked a full time job for four years and it doesn’t make sense.
Even my best friend is nagging the hell out of me for being so lazy and acting like a teenager when I’m 26.
She said, “Why would you want to work at a place when they don’t even pay you much? As a matter of fact why would you Work someone and not get paid. Hard work and no or little pay? Get real! You’re not even putting effort and you’re just lazy and you always drink and party every weekend. Stop being afraid of taking risks or what other people think and go for MORE! Stop seeking approval from mommy, daddy or others! Just do it! Go for what you want! Someone had to tell you. I hate to tell you this but I side with your parents. Ask for more hours.

My dad scolded at me and is so fed up with these part time or volunteer jobs I’m going after and I should at least work five days a week like I did in the past. Get a job that will pay me WELL at least a 20k job and I’m too hardheaded to listen! Man he didn’t have to yell at me. I’m autistic.
