My life is about to get worse and there's nothing I can do about it.
I kind of had it all for a little while. I had a nice little apartment in the city, with the office just a few blocks down and all kinds of wonderful little community features. I met new friends here. But now, my apartment complex is raising the rent and and the office is moving out of the city. There's no apartments close enough to the new office that I could keep walking to work. The CEO said I can work hybrid, which I guess I'm gonna do.
I now have a choice. I can move to a shithole apartment out in the suburbs with a decent amount of space and a grocery store down the street... OR I can move to a shoebox in the city with the same company that just jacked up my rent. I am still undecided, but I must make my move before long. I cut a little slice of heaven out for myself, but it was a slice of Heaven built out of a confluence of factors fixed in time, which will never come together again.
