So, why not move closer to the office? He explained that it’s not that simple. He tried looking for a PG near his workplace, but the rents were way too high. The cheaper options, he found, were completely unhygienic. With a monthly salary of just ₹35,000, he says he simply can’t afford to rent a place there. Many people commented on his post, with several advising him to look for a PG or a hostel to cut down on the exhausting daily travel.
