Before moving out of your home, stay overnight on different days of the week to find out if there are any problems you should be aware of, such as noise, security at night harassing you, and general comfort, such as if the A/C or heat is turned off at night.
Determine how much personal space you will have available and what possessions you will keep. Sell what you have left to raise money for costs you will incur for such living arrangements.
You can use your car to store some of your possessions, such as clothing or non-perishable food.
Buy a small refrigerator to use in the office.
Buy a Crock Pot for cooking.
Find a nearby laundry facility.
Arrange your sleeping schedule to avoid attracting attention to yourself. You may wish to sleep in the early evening after work so you wake up and have time to shower and get dressed before anybody arrives to the office.
Find a place to shower. If your work has a gym facility, this is ideal. You can also find a cheap gym membership or a community pool.
You may need a P.O. Box or a friend who can receive mail for you.
Don't get caught. Be careful about telling people where you live. While it might not be illegal, such living arrangements are definitely frowned upon by coworkers and employers.
Use this as an opportunity to put aside extra money for the unexpected, such as a job loss.
A downside of this living arrangements is if you are single, get ready for the challenges of inviting a date to your "home".
