When it rains it pours is something my family, that is me, my brother and sister say often. Mostly because when one negative event happens, it always is followed up by more. I'm almost positive that one of my ancestors got cursed by something, but nothing to be done. Seriously, its barely been like two weeks or something since the last one of these, but what can you do, when it rains it pours.
Anyway, my grandparents(AKA Landlords), have decided that since I have a job and some side income I should be getting a place of my own. In other words, I'm getting evicted because they're becoming old and bitter or something. I've got a couple of months though, so at least there's that.
Thankfully I managed to switch to a graveyard shift at my current job, which means I can actually sit around and write for around five hours a day, since that is an approved downtime activity.
But going to be looking for another much better paying job, as rent for a studio is around $1,000 where I live, not including utilities or internet usually, something I'm just barely making right now, and most places don't even rent to you unless your non-taxed income is at least double.
Regardless, it won't affect you guys for a while as I'm simply too lazy to go and change all the scheduled chapter releases again, so it will still be three a week until the end of September at least, though can't make any promises about past that. I'll have future me post another one of these if I think there is a need.
Was almost half tempted to just postpone the announcement, as usually misfortunes come in three for my family, but since no one knows what the future has in store, better to just let you all know, just in case. Also, 117 did go up earlier if for some reason you missed it.
I hope you find a solution soon and peace from this whole situation. I wish you success in the future (English is not my native language)
some nice folks you got, my mom is the same. luckily I've managed to keep staying here, but she loves to threaten me with eviction for time to time :/
Rip man. The housing market is sh*t right now too.
Seller's market atm, so bad time to buy but great time to sell
sad
If I could afford to spend a grand on rent after taxes I'd feel very well off and peeved that someone wanted that much for a small place. Might be worth considering moving away from that area to somewhere where the cost of living is significantly lower.
Then again, part of me wants to have words with the landlords about building family wealth but that's neither my place nor within my means so I shall merely wish you luck and look forward to further chapters.
1k? Wow that area is expensive. Also being kicked out is something that seems to happen a lot lately, I blame the news since they seem to have latch unto the topic of kids being lazy and "living off their elders".
Good luck with your (Job and Home) hunting!
