Was driving around today doing errands and just couldn't stop about thinking about how stupid property prices are here.
This guy is a genius. Surround sound, in a u-haul storage unit LOL

Why would he stink?Originally posted by Sugarphreak
Interesting idea, but it sure wouldn't be very comfortable
There are a ton of transient motorhomes floating around in Vancouver... they don't pay any rent, just move around as needed to keep bylaw off their backs.
I wouldn't, he would probably try to live at your workplace... not to mention he probably stinks
A TV, a hotplate, a toaster oven, lights, coffee pot, and probably more... all running from a single extension cord. I'm no electrician but that sounds sketchy as fawk.
Probably not near the 15 ampere breaker that's powers that receptacle and the extension cord is more than.likely capable as well.Originally posted by jhmed

Plenty of assumptions I see.Originally posted by Sugarphreak
Because he doesn't have a washer and dryer so he wears dirty cloths
Because he is living and cooking in a small space without ventilation
Because he has long gross uncut hair
Because he probably doesn't shower very often
Because he is probably too cheap to buy deodorant
Because he probably pisses & shits in his living space as needed
Because he is a fucking dirty minimalism hippy?
I could go on...
Even if you wanted to jump to his defense and be all like "OH but he says that he goes to the gym and showers there!"... does he look like he goes to the gym?
Really just one of the above needs to be true for him to stink. I certainly wouldn't bet against it.
My friend. You would be surprised at how wrong your assumptions are.Originally posted by Sugarphreak

I store my trailer in a storage yard, and there's a dude who has been living there for at least two years, in a motorhome. I assume he has a generator that he runs at night or something, because there are no hook-ups. He definitely works because he's not there weekday daytime, but shows up every evening. He's got a satellite dish and a propane BBQ. He must shower somewhere else.
Honestly looks like a good setup, and I'm happy to have someone there to deter thefts.

Same logic when camping on 15a service. Turn the hot plate or coffee pot off when running microwave....etc.Originally posted by jhmed

This is temporary. He did get an apartment at the end.
Staff knows he's there, which may get them in trouble if HQ knows which facilities it is.
There is customer bathroom on site. He shit and empty his sink there.
He showers at the gym daily.
He goes to laundromat, like everyone else without in suite laundary set.
So you may be right about the cooking and sleeping in the same space but I have nothing on that.
And it still cost him $200/mth for that living condition. And his is running all that stuff on 15A circuit. So he had to be careful on power consumption or he could very easy throw a breaker.

Really, it didn't occur to you that he might be using the gym for access to the shower, and not to work out? I wouldn't hire you if you aren't resourceful enough to identify that as the most obvious solution to not having a shower.Originally posted by Sugarphreak

This is actually quite common. There's a pretty decent chance that there are people in your life that have hit a rough patch at some point and were temporarily homeless or didn't have running water, and had to do something like live in a car and shower at the gym.
I would rather judge people on how they deal with adversity, rather than by whether or not they were faced with it.
FWIW, Elon Musk used to be homeless and shower in a gym. Steve Jobs used to not believe in showering, and stink. The people who hired them made a lot of money.

I love beyond, arguments about whether this guy stinks or not is very interesting.
Good for this guy being able to pull this off. Great use of 10x10 space. Reminds me of some apartments in HK, except ceiling height is much lower in the storage unit lol
To be fair Sugar, West coast pseudo-hippies and a man figuring it out and getting it done so he can to go to work every day are not created equal.
