Considering how different things are here, that isn't that surprising to me. People have already told me my world's different enough compared to theirs.
There's a saying that people have about the City- it's easier to die there than to make a living. It's definitely not what you would call perfect or ideal.

We have electricity and plumbing, those aren't new to me. Learning about everything from the future is interesting, once you get used to it.

You'd be surprised at what's out there. Entire genres are devoted to what you would probably call 'noise'.

I've learned to make a living in my own way. It's good enough for me.

Is that how you usually find work? So much for being hard to make a living.
[So the city is hard to find work in...unless you're a pro thief, apparently. That says a lot.]

It varies, but most of the time, no. Any thief can be called for a job. I'm just a professional.
