I got a new job and finally getting ready to move out of my parents' house, but my god rent is comically expensive where I'm at (like everywhere else). There aren't many places to look for roommates outside of craigslist (which I'm trying to avoid). It's looking like I might have to spend close to 40% of my paycheck to afford a 500 sq foot studio
They say you throw away communism when you get your first salaried job, but I think it's making me a third world maoist. Fuck all landlords
You can steal from self checkouts pretty easy by just “accidentally” forgetting to scan items in your cart. This works best with smaller more expensive items. Just put what you bag on top to cover them up, then if you get busted, which is unlikely anyways, you can easily say you didn’t see them and it would be a plausible explanation as long as you don’t get too greedy and make it obvious. I used to do this when I was unemployed for a time, and was often able to shave at least 20% off the grocery bill.
