San Francisco says tiny sleeping ‘pods,’ which cost $700 a month and became a big hit with tech workers, are not up to code::The pods, which are 4-foot-high boxes constructed from wood and steel, made headlines after tech workers praised the spaces.

I’m so sick of the coverage on this. There is a shared living space and bathrooms and shower, so it’s essentially a dormitory. Big whoop. Actually we could use more of such shared housing.

But then we wouldn’t be able to combine our hatred of tech workers with our complaints about the economy to turn this into a horror story.

And the people utilizing these spaces are not the ones bitching. How odd…

Yeah and while people are outraged at the squalor of it, they’re tech workers so no one’s actually concerned. It’s just an occasion to air one’s one bitching about the economy.
