I would prefer it if only my decisions affected my life, and not the decisions of other people. Want a well-paying job you're already good at? Better hope that another person decides you deserve it. Same with getting a place to live. It was quite a shock when I learned you had to fucking interview to rent an apartment, and may not be approved even if you have the money.
Wait what? I've never heard of such a thing in any of the places I've lived. BS like needing 3x the rent or 1st, 2nd and last months rent + deposit yea
But needing to interview‽ That's a new one LMAO
i was interviewed too when i was renting in Paris. What a shit show!
worst i heard was about a landlord who invited all the "interested" at the same time for some kind of a MCQuestionnaire 🤷
renting games! Be the best or stay out with the rest 🙃
