<human>: Can you give me a shortened version of the text?

Okay, so my boyfriend has been in the process of getting a job as a detention officer at the county jail here, he's just finished the entire pre-employment process, and passed all the tests. His best friend's dad is the Sheriff, and has put in a good word for him. He isn't supposed to be officially offered the job until Monday, but he's trying to move out as soon as possible. His friend who he's trying to get an apartment with's dad is coming down on Saturday to help them with all the lease stuff, they're going to sign a lease Saturday. Her dad will only cosign for them if my boyfriend puts his name on the lease as well. If he doesn't get this job (highly unlikely), he may be able to go back to either one of his previous jobs, which will pay slightly less but probbbbably enough to get by. Would it be wise to put his name on the lease without officially being offered the job, or should he pass on this roommate and wait until he knows for sure and get an apartment by himself (which is going to end up being quite a bit more expensive per month)?
<bot>: My boyfriend most likely has this job paying enough to live on his own, but not officially. Should he put his name on an apartment lease or pass on it until he knows for sure?
