There are cheaper options

and all those tiny fucking 'apartments' are fucking rooms in a bigger apartment

which is bullshit

also, you say he's working as an engineer

if you mean actual engineer and not totalbullshit "I can tighten a screw" engineer, he should be more than able to comfily afford a 3 room apt at least

Nono

I'm not talking about HIS living circumstances

ah lel

I'm just saying that he constructs those things

Cause supposedly, his city is filled with old buildings

And they don't wanna tear those down/renovate those

every city in switzerland is filled with old buildings they don't want to tear down

And the center is super fucking packed

So the best solution is to bring in portable/small options

still hipster as fuck

welp, just for reference, I'll start working in a month, recently graduated my EE apprenticeship, now going on to study EE in uni. Working 60% alongside 50% uni as an EE - 2700€ a month, double salary in december

and that's as a measly fucking student

my friend who graduated ETH last year got 7k€/month starting

is it worth spending 150ish bucks doing work to my old studio 1747

or should i save and buy a memepad

murrica or yurop?

if murrica, an entire T420/x220 would be cheaper than your repair on your laptop

bc my old studios p legit just needs a kb and battery

and its got specs that still r decentish today

@uberrice 50%, eh?

Most people just do 100% and aim to graduate in 3 years

It's honestly the more focused approach

I think the interest rate is 0.6%, so people don't necessarily need to rush a job to maintain their rent

But most just don't wanna spend too much

They'd rather spend it on more important stuff

Like beer and hookers

Yeah

well, @Aerione , it's a special concept that's applicable because we have apprenticeships. I'm working as an EE, as I already graduated the apprenticeship, so I learn practical knowledge, and I get free credits because of that

I'll be done in 4 years instead of 3

which I don't think is bad at all since I have 4 years / 2.4 or something years 'full time' work experience by then

Well, I guess that's applicable for the more practical specializations

you can only even do that if you completed an apprenticeship before

I already have an EE certificate - I won't be doing intern jobs or anything, I got hired as a full fledged electrical engineer

Yeah

I'll just get to a higher level of knowledge through uni

Still
