rapid cairn

I don't think so cuz it's not signed also I don't think they need to know my sign on bonus info and rsu

true that
rapid cairn
im looking towards queen anne area, it supposedly a nicer area
astral garnet
yea i was looking at some there as well
rapid cairn
slu is okay, expensive for no reason
belltown is sketchy
gonna stay away from there
astral garnet
ohw
i had seen a couple in belltown but yea have heard about things there
how are you planning to commute from queen anne?
rapid cairn
I think best bet is queen anne/westlake or slu for close proximity, otherwise you gotta commute
rn the apartment im most leaning towards is a 20 min walk
astral garnet
right
rapid cairn
but theres also shuttles and other things that amazon have for their campus
as well as the sky rail that just got put up
astral garnet
ohw, didnt know about that
rapid cairn
inner city transit is quite good I think
and walking queen anne to dennys triangle is like a mile
the further you go may vary but its pretty doable
indigo pine

rapid cairn
It doesnt say team, my letter is signed by a manager who is on the s3 team
astral garnet
I am in the lightsail team in sea42

thats unfortunate tho, maybe ill go SLU - there were a lot of fulltimers that lived around there. Or near international district maybe
rapid cairn
yeah
slender root
oh fuck
rapid cairn
I've looked at like every apartment in seattle
so many are so poorly managed
its so disappointing
slender root
;-;
rapid cairn
I have a car, but as a new employee I don't wanna commute
slender root
yea fr
rapid cairn
I wanna just walk
slender root
its way better to be closer
especially what with the whole 5 day week coming back lol
that sucks ass tho... when did you get offer?
rapid cairn
especially what with the whole 5 day week coming back lol
yeah exactly, im not trying to commute 5 days a week 30-40 mins a day
slender root

rapid cairn

yeah zon is a month
they give you a month with 2 weeks extension if necessary
rapid cairn
damn what
rapid cairn
no extension
did you have to reloc?
I keep going back and forth on where I wanna live man
so many people say bad things about the homeless and the crackheads at night downtown
I just wanna live somewhere tame and like I can head out to the store at night
slender root

yeah but honestly they’re harmless
that’s my opinion tbh
rapid cairn
fair
slender root
i’d run at night sometimes and they’re there but idk
rapid cairn
more or less worried about my girlfriend when she visits though
rapid cairn
yeah
slender root
did you have to reloc?
yes
but tbh
near office is very safe i think
just don’t hit up 3rd
rapid cairn
near office is mostly taken
slender root
valid
rapid cairn
yeah I heard about third just now
im lowkey looking at queen anne the most rn
my goal is a 2 bed with parking and utilities under 2700/month
but its gotta be a nice area and then all these damn stipulations because I keep finding out about new things in seattle that I just don't wanna have to deal with
one apartment I almost settled on and then I read google reviews and someone said they broke lease because there was a homeless shelter down the street where there was always yelling and crackheads come and shooting up outside the apartments

yeah after careful review i’ve decided i don’t want to live in the city at all. It’s queens anne and up. Right now im finding two bedrooms in northern fremont with views of the mountains for like $2200. It’s so much better, it might just be worth the commute
