People in the BA will put on scarves and wool caps and poo poo when it's 62 degrees out. Then they'll tell you it's because the ocean makes the air wet so it feels a lot colder. Then you tell them they're full of poo poo and are just pussified and you know it for a fact because you lived in Juneau for five years, and they shut up.

Pawn 17 posted:lol at the people still defender her. As I said several pages back, she could have easily afforded to live in SF proper, in a nice neighborhood if she had simply found some roommates that had a rent controlled apartment. But no, "I am a 25 year old with a liberal arts degree and no real world experience, and I am entitled to my own apartment, at market rate, in the second most expensive city in the US! What?? My minimum wage job won't let me afford that? This country is hosed! Maybe if I write my CEO, he will make me vice president of tweets and pay me the $150k/yr I DESERVE!"

Big City Drinkin posted:The media keeps referring to her as a "tech employee." Her job was to talk on the phone to people who were pissed that a pizza place hosed up their order. Are the janitors at Google in STEM careers now? Being an Uber driver is considered a tech job nowadays. --- It is one of the methods that tech companies use to attract young naive people and exploit them for their labour. Dressing up a dead end, minimum wage job as an attractive career prospect is part of the problem. It is hard to say that she should have known better since it is a 'reasonable' sounding grift (get a tech job in a booming tech city) to any out-of-towner, and it works well enough to be self-perpetuating. If she reads tech media, she would constantly see stories lionising young people (living in cramped dorms) working for equity (in failing) start ups and doing (sub-minimum wage) work in the sharing economy during their spare time. A dumb/naive, spoilt twenty-something expecting more than they are worth isn't a poster child for exploitation. Yet businesses are only too happy to take advantage of them for their own ends. That the CEO explains that they are moving jobs to Arizona because they are not viable in SF, but is happy to gently caress them over in the meantime is proof enough.

Why did she not find a roommate? She had a lease, get another broke 20 year old to pay you half the $1200 a month. They can sleep on a bunk bed in the living room

They can sleep on a bunk bed in the living room 20 years ago I lived in a studio near 6th & Market. The windows looked right into a one bedroom that housed about 12 men, who would sleep in bunks. Every morning around three, when I was coming home because I went out every night, the men would be rising and getting ready to go somewhere to do something. I always wondered: bakery? Dry cleaners? One man would stay behind and scrub the apartment. Also, even in 1998 it was too expensive for my rear end and I was gone in three years. Awesome city though.

up until about 15 years ago you could afford to live in the middle of manhattan making low wages like these. failure of the government to adequately regulate rental units is one of the major driving forces behind nyc and san fran becoming unaffordable. i dont think its entitled to want to have a similar standard of living that our parents and forebears had.

I almost did what this girl did, but in Los Angeles. This almost happened a month ago. The difference is that I asked friends for advice and they all slapped me across the head and told me I was making a gigantic mistake. I decided to not make the move to Los Angeles.

What would need to happen to drive rental prices down? Like maybe the problem isn't wages, but just the cost of living is absurd and there should at the very least be something done about rent in cities.

Klyith posted:lol just lol ??? it's true. I have lived in nyc my whole life and have seen the way it used to be. quote:nah it's not like rents were regulated a ton more in the past. It's more about inequality that pushes the market to such crazy heights. i think it's not a coincidence that nyc and SF, the homes of incredible wealth from wall st and the tech industry, are the cities that are distorted so badly. hundreds of thousands of rent-stabilized units have disappeared from nyc over the past 20 years due to outdated regulation, so yes. after rent hits a certain threshold per month, a unit can be de-regulated, and that threshold was never adjusted for inflation and hasnt been updated in decades. quote:there's also pressure from the weird international poo poo going on right now, where foreign wealth is looking for safety and the hot US real estate is where they want to park it. in the 80s LA was the in city and that's where the japanese were buying all sorts of overpriced stuff. this too shall pass. yes, developers are being incentivized by the state government to build large towers with units that sell for millions, but which sit empty for most (or all) of the year because they are being bought by wealthy foreigners to launder cash. the market is actively working against the housing demand, which is a place for rent regulation to step in (but isnt happening due to corruption), quote:some people also have a kinda wrong image of the standard of living their parents had when they were young, even if they grew up middle class. lots of people in the 60s lived in little 1000 sq foot houses and thought that was fine for a whole family. 1000 sq feet is gigantic by new york standards, and a great deal of our housing stock was built in the 20s and 30s, so most people here actually have a pretty good idea about what living standards were like for our parents and grandparents.
