Bad Neighbourhood

One of the interesting parts of a [job hunt][] is the neighbourhood of prospective employers.

Yesterday, I had an interview¹ at a company’s premises that were located near what appeared as a typical “bad neighbourhood”.²

It was an industrial park with some residential areas as well, an almost abandoned train station and a road with an exceptional high amount of traffic for its location. It didn’t leave an impression of a cozy, friendly place and I doubt you would see lots of folks during any time of the day.

I don’t know if I would bear the commute to these premises for more than a few days.
