While I was happy to finally graduate from college, entering the workforce was a bit intimidating.
- I got my degree in a entirely specialized field that requires significant experience to excel.
I knew it was going to take awhile for me to start earning a unbelievable living. In the meantime, I was responsible for huge student loans, insurance, car payment plus all sorts of living expenses. I barely had enough in the budget to cover groceries. I took an house in close enough proximity that I could walk to labor plus save on gas. I chose the accommodations mainly because of the seriously low rent. The house building had some problems. The front door didn’t shut tightly or lock securely. The majority of windows were painted shut plus yet they all leaked air. There were water stains on the ceilings from leaking pipes plus water harm on the walls plus floors. There was entirely limited warm water, exhausting water pressure plus the drains consistently restrained. The oven smoked when I ran it, plus the refrigerator wasn’t chilly enough to prevent milk from spoiling. My greatest complaint was with the heating plus cooling system. I live in an area where the outdoor temperature fluctuates somewhere from downside twenty to the upper nineties. My friend and I experience bitter wind chills, rain, snow, high humidity plus every type of weather condition. It’s not possible to go without heat in the winter. I set the temperature control as low as possible, rolled up towels on the window sills, dressed in heavy sweaters plus still paid ungodly heating bills! Every time the boiler started up, it made a horrifying noise plus spewed tons of dust plus different stinks into the air. In the summer, I went without air conditioning. I could afford the high electric bills plus couldn’t tolerate the musty stink coming from the vents. I tried running a box fan in the dining room however kept tripping the breaker.
