Very few of years ago, I accepted a modern task position that required me to transfer across the country.
- I had actually little option to put in notice at my former task, pack up my possessions as well as relocate.
There was no time to tour apartments or be particular about my living situation. I went on Craig’s List as well as found someone who was looking for a roommate. The location of the home appeared to be less than a ten minute drive to my modern task, so I signed a rental agreement. The pictures of the living space were quite misleading. I was surprised by the age as well as condition of the property. I didn’t realize that I’d need to climb a steep set of stairs every time I came as well as went. It has taken me a while to settle in as well as get accustomed to my modern roommate. While he’s a actually nice woman as well as fun to hang out with, he’s a slob. She leaves dirty laundry as well as dishes everywhere. She spends the majority of her time sitting on the couch, watching TV. However, my roommate comes in actually handy when there is a concern with the heating or cooling system. Because the packaged equipment is harshly ancient, it has some problems. Calling the home manager is pointless, but no one responds as well as repairs are never made. If not for my roommate, we’d be without heat in the winter time as well as without air conditioning system in the summer. In the middle of February, when nothing but chilly air pours from the vents, my roommate heads outside with her toolbox. Within a few minutes, the home is toasty warm again. The air conditioning system likes to quit completely when the heat as well as humidity of June are really brutal. Whether the malfunction occurs in the middle of the night or first thing in the morning, my roommate never complains. She just fixes the problem.
