It is a bit confusing. Our co-op, though subsidized, was pretty self-sufficient. Meaning that our rent was used to pay for food and things we wanted/needed for the house. When we made dinner (which I did once a week) we made it for 20 people, though there were only 16 in the house. So there was always plenty and allowing 2 or so people to pay to eat dinner at our place was a way to have a little extra so we had more in our budget for parties (read: booze)and things like that.
It was a good deal for them because they got four really good dinners a week for like $15 or something like that.

| How did you find these people? Did you put up signs: Wanted. People to pay to eat our meals. Perferable cute males. |

It should be noted that this person stumbled upon this sign in an area with a, "bunch of blue hairs."
The first note is from mother to son. The second is from son to mother.

I honestly don't how these people were found. Sometimes it was someone's friend. My year there was a guy and a girl. They weren't friends with anyone in the house and I cannot remember how they found out about it. I don't think we advertised but we did meet a few people and select who we felt clicked the best.
I am pretty sure our houseboy had no complaints. See:
He was Santa at our Christmas party. I'm in the back left corner behind the girl in the red shirt. (tangent: I had the best eggnog ever there. Made by a housemate whose parents were Irish. Her liberal use of whiskey definitely made a difference.)

That one is from Oxford. This one is from Belfast. Clearly y'all are just as crazy as we are.
With text from the site:
paddy in belfast sends us this series of shots from his office kitchen, where several of his coworkers have taken their frustrations with microwave cleanliness into their own hands.
it all started when one day, a microwave appeared bearing this note:
…but SDT wasn’t taking any chances.
later, a second microwave appeared, complete with its own note:
…which prompted this note on the wall between them:

I love his half hearted attempt at cleaning before he lost interest. Wears shoes and play safe. Nice
And as for Belfast microwave: entertaining, but that would be a really annoying place to work if people were that worked up about a microwave. |

"I would apologize but I would be lying." But he cares enough to write a note.
And is angry enough to break a glass because he doesn't know his own strength.
This guy is a bowl full of crazy. I love it. |

I do a lot more writing than cleaning. I should do the opposite today. |
