owlectomy1) I will not apply for a job in an extremely expensive suburb of LA. What am I, nuts?*
2) I will apply for a part-time position if it's in a very cheap area, but not in a suburb of DC. What am I, nuts?
3) More generally: being marginally qualified for a job is not, in itself, a reason to apply for it. I have been applying for jobs for less than a week; I do not graduate until April; I am not in any way desperate. I can (probably) just apply for jobs that pay a living wage, and that I would actually like.
*Not one of those tired southern-California stereotypes; I hear the public transportation isn't great, and it's just dumb to put an as-of-yet-unlicensed driver in a two-hour commute in LA traffic.
