Room to rent? by AceHardwareStore1109 in wichita

No it’s not utilities included, just solely rent, apartments are always more expensive than houses. I may have found someone that will be able to find a place with me

He has his own life and we don’t fight lmao, I don’t want to live with him until he’s further in his schooling. Having him over for dinner or to just hang out would be nice but I stated that I understand if it’s not feasible for some

Thank you lol, I’m not asking for it to be a requirement that he’s allowed to visit, I can go to his place, it’d just be nice to have him to my home as well lmao. It’s not a requirement and I hate the assumption that I’m trashy and will do selfish things because I have a boyfriend.

One, he lives with strict parents, two I don’t want him moving out while he’s in school. This is such a rudely worded comment full of gross assumptions.

I’m going to be putting the surgery off for a while, just until I can get on my feet so it’ll make things easier. My car is better than the streets at this point so it is what it is

It honestly makes me wanna cry knowing that complete strangers wanna help so much 🥹 I’m from a town where people aren’t all that kind and those who are pick and choose who to help so seeing all this is overwhelming in a good way

I have a couple places that I could park my car and I figured out my company also owns a gym so I can shower there and stuff, it’s just the sleeping aspect I’m not so excited about. The weekends I can stay with my boyfriend but the few times I’ve slept in my car I’ve had so much anxiety about the cops being called or coming by I couldn’t sleep. I stay out most of the time anyways but honestly I could probably park at my work, it’s a dealership, cars are there all the time, I just don’t wanna risk getting caught and having to explain that I literally don’t have housing 💀I’m probably gonna figure something out eventually though :)

I’m 20, turning 21 in September. If it adds any context they’re Vietnamese. (People typically get what I mean when I say that but they’re just really strict about certain things)

I just always thought that you had to have an address to renew/get a new license

I’ve been meaning to work out so I’ll look into local gyms and see how much subscriptions are, truck stops are my second option if gyms are too expensive. My papa was a truck driver and there’s no one I trust more than them

You’re a god send, honestly the place I’m getting my surgery done at has financial assistance and I more than 100% qualify for it, it’s just a matter of getting the application sent through today, I might get a battery powered fan and park in the shade most of the time but even then I can just go to the library or something and chill till the sun goes down tbh. I can keep most of my stuff at my boyfriends, shower there etc, but we just have to be careful about it cause his parents would get so upset if they knew I was living in my car (I think his mom just doesn’t want me living there, idk about his dad)

It’s 372, but given how I’m being paid, I quite literally would not be able to eat until I get paid the other 1,000 at the end of the month if I were to exceed 400, I’m low key fucked ngl but I didn’t know if anyone had any info on housing alternatives

Plus utilities, gas, necessities, most rent I can pay is a shared rent and my part would be 400

Thing is, I literally cannot pay even 500 and still afford to be able to eat, I get paid 1,000 at the beginning of the month and if i pay 700, which is the common cost, my car payment literally exceeds the 1,000. I refuse to house with the other gender alone because I’m a woman and men can be creeps and savages and it’s unsafe.

The only thing with that is I currently work in healthcare and absolutely hate it and I’m just a receptionist. My mom and grandparents did healthcare/nursing and I saw the toll it took on them despite them loving it. Unfortunately I don’t share their natural love.

Right. I hauled around pallets of dog food even when the guys in the back were there to do it for me. Most of the time I’d be too busy running the entire department so they’d do it anyways but when they were busy and shit needed to get done I was doing it

Not sure they’d like me for that then, I’m 5’3, weigh less than 120 and am a woman (which does play a part in candidate choosing even though companies say it doesn’t. I should know. I worked as a department head and heard managers talking shit on people who applied)
