You don't own a car? Wow, what's that like?Originally Posted by complich8
Maybe it's a good sign that the company isn't right for you, since it's so far away. Or is it just that the interview is far away, like at a nice restaurant?

“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
not having a car has been pretty standard for me for a while. I had one for about 6 months in college until it broke down.
I've got roommates and friends that have taken care of transportation needs in the past, and both where I went to college and where I'm living now there's fairly extensive transit systems, so ... it works out ok either way.
But yeah, soon as I've got an offer, I'm going car shopping... there's a lot of lack of freedom when you've gotta pester your friends or roommates to go anywhere. Especially with the current roomies, who're both paranoid about their (relatively cheap, relatively shitty) cars and won't let other people drive them.
The interview today is actually at the site I'd be working. The interview yesterday was 2 and a half hours by train/bus, but is only 25-30 minutes by highway, in traffic.
Interviews... I should probably re-start sending curriculums...
current job pays well... better than what I earned on IT Testing... but Process Implementation kinda gets tedious...
I work in the same company, I just 'switched sides'. I became the 'user' who asks IT to do something...
God... I swear some people here are so damn useless... they use the damn system daily (telephone company) and never fully understand it...
But that is somewhat passable... what I hate the most is working alongside Marketing and Facturation (I am not sure about the word... but I am currently lazy and have a headache to check its the correct one)
I actually miss IT... but not working 4 extra hours daily is a bonus though...
Some guy from IT asked me if I wasn't interested on working with them, on Release Management (they manage what gets installed, and what gets installed on the -real life- server, not the testing ones. But they work almost everyday until 11pm or more... It seems interesting... and a way to learn more of Databases... but heck... they should give me at least 33% raise for me to accept that work... (usually work ends at 7pm)
Whatever...
