29 & 30 and still have housemates 🥲 what have they done with their lives?

All 3 of them make 100k+ but saving money is worth it when you enjoy the people you live with and live in an expensive area 🤷🏻‍♀️ but I doubt any of them LOVE having housemates or anything lol

How long have you been together? Is it time you guys get your own place.

Also, what’s wrong with the housemates?

D1 we’re thinking about it but the line of work my bf is in it’s pretty hard to get a remote job :(

Lol my roommate and I smoke a lot of weed too, and I def clean more than he does but we have an air purifier. & whenever cleaning is a lil lacking I just hire a professional service to do the bathroom/kitchen. It works for us :)
If you’re too uncomfortable, spend more time at your place? Or re evaluate your bf’s standard of cleanliness / tolerance of messynesss - this will bite you in the future.

Oh yeah I mean it’s not the weed that bothers me so much, I just mentioned that to say I think because they’re high a lot of the time they’re less aware of their surroundings and/or other peoples feelings. Professional service is an awesome way to do it!

Luckily for me my bf’s standards pretty much match my own — and of course I don’t live in their house so it’s not really my place to judge, I just start noticing my bf’s stress that comes with his living situation. We try to spend more time at my place for sure!

Hey Fishes,
I am a software developer with ~4 years of experience. Recently I joined a coaching for preparation of some good companies like Google Amazon etc.. It is a small coaching class where I get coaching with 6 college students.
The issue is that the teacher we are having here is very strict, he will beat us like small kids and also make us murga for mistakes... At the same time he teaches superb good. Not sure if I should continue with the tution or not.

Applied here and interviewed (presumably to the final round) and didn’t end up with an offer, I think due to the specific experience I’ve had so far. I want to definitely try again in the future when I get more experience. Is there a specific grace period that is ideal? Would this look bad if I apply again since I’ve been rejected before?

I've realized that I keep working 60+ mostly because I suck at things regarding the personal life. My love life sucks, I don't have that many close friends, and don't have a good hobby (mostly in my free time I just pass time).

Have anyone already felt like this? If so, were you able to change? How?

P.s.: 25yo, 1.5yoe (only consulting). Moving to a T2 firm next month and I'd like to start freshly
