When I First Stepped on Torn City

Ayo, K4LM3D right here. I’m just chilling here at my apartment while writing this. Nothing special, just wanna share my journey at one of the most dangerous cities, Torn City.

🏢 First day, first job

On my first day, not gonna lie, I’m actually lost. It’s a big city, ya know?! I only heard of Torn City on advertisements and on the news. I came here to study and when I got here, the first thing I did was to find a job.

I applied for the army but I failed my interview. Then, I applied to a grocery store and fortunately, I got in as a bagger for a salary of $200 a day. The next day, I quit my job and applied again in the army but this time, my interview was a success and I got the job. My salary is -$50 less compared on being a bagger but it’s fine. I still pressed on.

📚 Being a working student

For my studies, I joined a Computer Science course. I took the first module, CMT1520: Introduction to Computing. I completed it within a week while I’m in the army. I want to continue the course but my job’s requiring me to be more physical so I change course.

I joined a Self Defence course but I just wanna take the first module, DEF1700: Introduction to Self Defence. I don’t wanna learn martial arts or sports on the next modules so I change course again soon after I finished it.

My next course is a Combat Training course. This time I want to finish it. It has 11 modules. After that, I will go back and finish my first course which is Computer Science.

⚒ My hard work finally payed off

Although my salary is okay in the army, it’s not enough so in between my studies and work, I sell some stuff so that I can go to gym and buy new clothes. I also do a lot of missions for George. I met him in the city. It took me 13 days to finished all of that for more money. He is a good friend though.

After 12 days in the army, I got a job offer from a Private Security Firm to be a Security Contractor. I’m so blessed because the salary is $50k a day. It’s way way more money compared to my daily salary on my previous jobs. I, actually, can’t believe it but I quit my job and after I got my first day salary at the firm, I’m super happy. I bought an apartment worth $25k and do some modifications in it—an upgrade worth $12.5k. Now, I only have to pay $25 daily for the upkeep.

Oops! I still want to go on but I need to go to work now. ‘Till next time 👋
