[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 52477"] Frustrated, I have to tell you that you are thinking correctly. I used to drive 70 minutes to work at UPS. And I made it every day for 4 1/2 yrs, when some 10 minutes away couldnt get out of their driveway. It is "that" worth it. Then I moved 2 minutes away, and hated it, now I drive 45 minutes and its a walk in the park. The guy that hired me back in the early 80's also mentioned that and the fact that I had children which may take priority over work if they get sick or something. A good personnel management person would look at your work record, your schooling, and your references, and appearance. And the background check, and fingerprinting should rule out you being a terrorist. And a good personnel person should have the insight to see a good employee when they are sitting in front of them. With as much of a turnover as there is in PT employment, I would think a persistent person, driven to excel would be hired gladly, instead of admonishing them for "living too far away", by their standards. And if you are only applying for PT, I dont see the big deal as you would be working maybe 60 hrs a week, and many UPSERS get close to that every week. [/QUOTE]
