One of the reason my boss wanted me to move closer was that I seemed to
be the best candidate for the position and I was 90 minute commute each
way.  He lives/works far away from any real source of talent and knowing
that he will have a high turnover rate with no real source of
replacement workers will be it's own satisfaction.  For MANY years it
has been a 2 to 3 man operation and he is looking to expand into a 12
man shop.  His only previous employees is one guy who was hired when he
was still a sophmore in high school who has been there for 18? years,
his daughter in law who has no previous experience in the industry and
his kids.  I am one of his first employees with significant previous
experience but I'm sure I won't be the last out the door.

However, my e-mail was not to encite a riot against my latest employer
but to point out to that not only do employers use interviews to
determine if they want me to work for them but to also to use the
interview to determine if the company is one that I would actually want
to work for.
