My first industry job + questions!

[2d-chris]

you rent what ever you can for your first job, you have no choice to share/get a shit hole if that's all you can afford. Get a studio flat somewhere, 1 room with everything you need. My first apartment was utter dreadful, if u gota live in a shit area and a building thats about to fall down you will have to

Didn't see this thread until now, 5 pages later Once again, big congrats, we're really happy to have you.

I hope you'll find a good place to stay. Shared house isn't that bad, it all comes down to what kind of people you get to share with, and that's always a bit random since people come and go. I pay around £370 for my room, and it's a decent size room in a 4 room house with living room and a big garden. The cool thing about living near the science park though is that most tenants are young professionals, often with different nationalities. My worst case scenario so far was a Lithuanian guy who was really high and stayed up all night watching recorded live performances of a band called Earth Wind and Fire with the volume at max. When I got up for work the day after he was still downstairs watching, laughing at how funny their clothes were.

I can ask around and see if there's anyone at work who's got a spare room, so that you can stay with frontier people and minimize the risk of getting utter weirdos.

Oh shiii I remember, my first 6 months working at Climax I lived in a bed and breakfast place, can actually be cheaper than your own place, giving you time to find a really nice place. It was something like 30 pounds a night, but you get free breakfast and don;t even have to tidy your room

Luxury... In two years in Sao Paulo I've lived under a bridge, inside an abandoned car, in a whorehouse, in a shoebox, in a subway station and in a parking lot. Most of my room mates consisted of crack addicts, transvestites and producers. Consider yourself lucky little man.
