Like many hippies, Jake and Helen rejected the 1960s counter-culture by the end of the 1970s and began working in the corporate world. Jake in particular began work in the advertisement industry, with little success. Adding to his strife was the fact that Jake worked for a rather controlling boss who treated Jake poorly (whom he referred to as a "mini-Mussolini" in the episode "[[Boxing Daria]]") and further verbally abused Jake on a regular basis.
Jake and Helen ultimately had two daughters, [[Daria Morgendorffer|Daria]] and [[Quinn Morgendorffer|Quinn]]. By this point the family was living in the fictional town of [[Highland]], Texas, (home of [[Beavis and Butt-head]]). The family stayed there for several years before moving to the fictional town of [[Lawndale]]. It has been implied that the family moving came with Jake's decision to quit his job and start his own freelance advertising consultant firm. The move was designed to give Jake the freedom of being his own boss and to free him from the stress-filled environment in which he used to work.
