In the book THE OUTSIDERS, Darry had two jobs. One of them was roofing houses, and I cannot remember if they even mentioned what his second one was. Maybe he worked at a gas station like Steve and sodapop? lol.
Yes, Darry was right. Something needed to change. They were fighting too much, even though they were loyal to each other by not getting caught and sticking up for each other.
When Darry says " you don't just stop living because you lose someone" I think that he means that when you loose someone you have to keep going on with your life, you can't end your life because someone you care for dies. Life just has to go on. This is what I think Darry means when he tells Ponyboy " you don't just stop living because you loose someone." --
Darry tells Ponyboy that he's "living in a vacuum" to emphasize that Ponyboy is isolating himself emotionally and not fully engaging with the realities of their lives. Darry believes that Ponyboy is not acknowledging the challenges they face as a family and is instead retreating into his own thoughts and dreams. This statement serves as a wake-up call for Ponyboy to recognize the importance of connecting with his family and the outside world.
In contrast to this close loving relationship with Sodapop is Ponyboy's volatile relationship with his oldest brother, Darry. Pony and Darry are always at odds. Darry gets frustrated because Ponyboy "never thinks" and is always doing things that put the family's living arrangements at risk. Darry is the "father figure" since the death of the boy's parents. If they get into trouble the state agency will separate them. Darry is working two jobs to try to keep the family together and is hard on Ponyboy because he has to be. It isn't until the end of the novel that Ponyboy grows up enough to realize that Darry and he may not ever be close, but Darry really does love him.
darry doesn't want pony to put his life to a stop because pony is feeling too depresed about johnny's death

Darry tells Ponyboy that he is not living up to his potential and that he needs to take life more seriously. He expresses his frustrations about Ponyboy's lack of responsibility and the risk he takes by being careless. This conversation upsets Ponyboy because he feels misunderstood and believes Darry doesn't care about him, leading to feelings of inadequacy and resentment.
