I know someone at my last job who was sleeping in a van on work campus to avoid rent. Eventually security made him stop. So you’re not too far from the truth

Thanks, Nick. I've heard stories of people sleeping in their cars to save money and use/save as much of their tech salary as possible. It's rough out here!

Good story! People will find a way-but his solution is not something I could ever have conceived of! But it goes to show what a problem affordable housing can be. And Great cartooning!

A pretty crazy idea, right? I've actually slept on the street for one night (that story is for another comic). I could never do it for a year. Thanks for becoming a paid subscriber to the newsletter! I really appreciate it.
