Interview

[lesliepear]

Did I mention I have an interview on Wednesday?
Still financial, still NYC though.
Actually, it is 2 blocks north of where I am now. So I can keep the good shopping - children's place, old navy, bed bath beyond, gap, burlington coat factory, starbucks etc :)
If I have to work in NYC, I really don't want to work anywhere near Ground Zero. Although I had to go downtown shortly after 9/11 because of my consulting firm (which was at 40 broad street, next to the NY Stock Exchange) I really have ventured down there as little as possible. I still remember the WTC and the shopping concourse SO clearly in my head. (So glad I was on jury duty in NJ that day).

I am REALLY glad that you weren't at the WTC that day!

I add to the chorus - I'm glad you weren't anywhere near the WTC on that day.

Good luck on your interview! What type of financial work do you do?

Good luck on your interview! I can see why New Yorkers by home or office would be averse to working near the former WTC site. Especially given your situation on that day.
My DC provider just got back from vacation in NY. I haven't been since about a month after 9-11 when they were still cleaning everything up. She claims you can still smell smoke and of course, there are marks on some of the surrounding buildings.
