He is eating at Google company cafeteria and showers in the Google company gym.
All the truck has in it is a dresser, wardrobe, and bed. Didn't say where/how he did his laundry.

Probably pays to have it done too. I had all my work clothes cleaned and pressed when I lived in Houston. I could get a shirt dry cleaned and pressed for $0.95 same day!
I think a lot of people are looking at the way the cost of housing is going up and saying why? Look at the tiny house movement, lots of people saying I don't need a big house just fill up with junk, and I can be happy living on a small salary and low expenses. That's our plan in a few years. Can't live in a tiny house with kids, but once they are gone...
