Montreal is too damn small.

brinshannaraGoing through job ads and find this cool ad looking for a junior graphic artist (that would be fine with me) and check out where they're located (no use in applying if it'll take me 90 minutes to get there and another 90 to get home), and come to a startling realization.
They're in the same building I worked in during my last job (as Marketing Coordinator).
This is the SECOND outfit I've checked out in the last month that's been located in that building.
I loathed that building. It's a refurbished factory, so it's HUGE (no wonder there are so many people there), and it's not that hard to get to or anything, but it's not near any commercial places, you know? Not that close to downtown, it's more in an industrial area with low-cost residential zones around it. That means the employees are reliant on the VERY BAD cafeteria for food, or they bring a lunch, because there's no Subway or McDonald's or anything like that down there.
These people are also probably French. Sigh. Well, I may as well send in my CV, eh? I don't need to take the job if it's offered to me, right? And if it's not going to be worth my time to sit in that damn building and shlep back and forth, I won't. Simple as that.
