Mitchkenzo and I have gotten fed up with throwing money in the trash for the bloated rent prices these days, especially with our complex wanting to raise monthly rent 163$ total these last 2 years while still remaining as crappy a complex as ever. We're going to be getting a house hopefully within the next 6 months, and it's going to be at a monthly rate perhaps only 100$ over our current monthly rent...except rather than a less than 1000 square foot 2 bedroom craphole apartment it will likely be a 3 bedroom HOUSE with far more space and storage and FiOS internet rather than Time Warner.For the moment we are hoping we can get a roommate who is furry since it makes it a lot easier to let our guard down most of the time relatives aren't over, but if it takes too long we're going to have to just get a regular instead. We ARE going to be somewhat picky however, as we do have standards and just being a furry isn't going to get you into the door.
Here's a little questionnaire which I will answer too since I'm clearly such a whore for making first comments.
1. Do you live in Texas?
While living in Texas is not a requirement, we're more likely to want to make arrangements with someone reasonably nearby, rather than in say...Guatemala or Washington state.
1a. If Texas, any chance you're also near Dallas? It IS an unnaturally large state, so someone still in the same state still might be farther away than someone else one or two states out. XD
2. What's your job history?
I am not looking for addresses and contact details, but I need to know how capable you are of keeping your butt in one place for a while and earning mad piles of green shit. Mitches and Aves love green shit that pays rent. If you have a history of joblessness and short lived jobs you have to understand that we can't be gambling on our financial integrity when a house mortgage is on the line. While we could afford to pay it between just the two of us, we'd hardly ever have extra money to save up for emergencies or stuff we want to get.
2a. Would you be willing to find a new job quickly, even if it ends up being below your standards?
3. What are your cleanliness habits?
I don't honestly care if you leave stuff lying all over your room, or don't take a shower every single day. What I DO care about is stuff like spilling things a lot, making crumbs and other mess that get into everything, having mysterious odors wafting from your body, and leaving lots of stuff lying around in places others use. I also don't want to be seeing things like forgetting to flush toilets or griming up a bathroom and expecting others to clean your messes. It's also a good thing if once in a while you take it upon yourself to clean a few of the dishes or take out the trash on your own impetus.
4. Do you use drugs or controlled substances, legal or otherwise? How much and how often?
If you use anything illegal, don't even bother replying to this. Both because we don't want it in our house, and because it would be breaking Furaffinity's terms of service to talk about real life drug use on this site. Alcohol use is fine within reason, but if you have an actual drinking addiction or start puking on things you're asking for a footpaw out the door seeing as we have to pay out of our own pockets for the furniture and the floors. Kinda iffy on a smoker, too, as the smell of ash is gross and we will not allow any smoking inside the house ever, which is hard to monitor at all times. The smell would never get out of the furniture and floor and the walls would get stained.
5. What are your noise habits?
Do you tend to turn things up a lot? Do you tend to have music blaring from your speakers or a radio in your room? Are you a door slammer? Do you talk loudly or have a really loud laugh you might not be able to keep down late at night?
6. Are you a partier?
Mitch and I are likely going to ban alcohol for the most part in events in our house, and we're not too in favor of having lots of people we might not know mingling with our valuables. We also don't want you wobbling into the house drunk after smashing in the garage door and throwing up or forgetting to lock the door behind you.
7. Criminal Background?
If you've been hit for really bad stuff like theft and assault we probably don't want you in our house.
8. Pets?
We were thinking about getting a kittie, but if you already have pets that might not be happening. We also need to know how well trained they are and how they react to new people and places.
9. Do you own a vehicle that's not falling apart?
We really, really need you to be able to get to your own job with your vehicle the majority of the time.
10. Are you trustworthy?
We're going to be a lot more open to someone we already know rooming with us. We're not fans of people who are going to lie, steal, be emotionally unstable, or do things behind our backs we told them not to. We can't have someone who leaves the door unlocked or the garage open for stealing of anything inside.
11. Current health?
We're going to be less likely to take someone who has a chronic issue that makes it hard for them to hold a job.
12. Current relationships?
It's possible you could share your room with your significant other with some additional rental arrangements, but you need to understand that if they don't also meet our standards it could be grounds for removing you from the house. If you insist on doing things adults sometimes do with one another we also ask that you please refrain from making headboards hit the wall or making all sorts of lewd noises we can hear through the walls.
FA+


Yes. I live in the Dallas area!
2. What's your job history?
I worked at a grocery store as my first job for 6 years. Then after I moved I got a job at Home Depot and have been there nearly a year already. I'd get a new job if I needed to, as I understand making any sort of money at all is better than not making any and falling into debt.
3. What are your cleanliness habits?
I tend to sometimes let mail pile up a bit, or put off doing the laundry a little too long. I try to get everything back in order once in a while though. I clean the entire bathroom occasionally, and also like to help out with the dishes and trash, though I need to do it more. I try to shower every day, or at the latest every other day. I'm also quite a fan of brushing my teeth and not melting faces with my breath.
4. Do you use drugs or controlled substances, legal or otherwise? How much and how often?
I've never smoked, and I haven't had any alcohol since the day the church insisted I partake in some wine in a goblet held by a robed man they insisted had become blood as a part of their silly blood sacrifice ritual they partake in on a weekly basis.
5. What are your noise habits?
I tend to use noise cancelling headphones, so I often don't make very much noise. A few times I have been guilty of being a bit noisy when using Skype, but I try to keep my door closed and keep it down now.
6. Are you a partier?
Nope, I tend to require dragging to even go to a party.
7. Criminal Background?
Totally clean.
8. Pets?
I ate all of themOh nope no pets right now
9. Do you own a vehicle that's not falling apart?
I do in fact! It's a shiny silver 2007 Corolla that runs very nicely!
10. Are you trustworthy?
Oh certainly. I'm always worried about imposing on others and as such make sure to lock the door, leave other's things alone, and avoid eating everything in the fridge that's not mine!
11. Current health?
I don't have any problems right now. I'm fit and of a normal weight, no breathing issues or psychological baggage. I use glasses, but I don't need them for much more than reading signs that are really far away.
12. Current relationships?
As an asexual I'm not interested in pursuing long term intimate relationships with others. Seductive and single hyena forever babeh!
13. Can I molest your tummy and then eat you?Whoops! Wrong window. I was talking to a meerkat, I swear!
Yes
1a. If Texas, any chance you're also near Dallas? It IS an unnaturally large state, so someone still in the same state still might be farther away than someone else one or two states out. XD
