One of my co-workers was embarrassed he resided in Redmond, so he got a PO Box in Bellevue and told everyone he lived in Bellevue.
Now Redmond is a locale of status. Poor rich kid, couldn't live off our salary, the one the rest of us supported families with, so his folks had to send him a monthly check so he could get by. Sad but true.
Oh geez. Wonder if he’s living in his mom’s basement now. That said, Redmond and Bellevue are fairly pricey places to live now, but back in the day not so much. He must have been living high on the hog - fast cars, wining, dining, cool apartment, etc.
