So long story short, a company in Ohio is interested in obtaining my services.

Should I do it? I mean... it's Ohio. And it's not even urban Ohio. It's an hour from Columbus.

Thing is, I can't imagine a place much worse than Syracuse...

I've spent a limited amount of time in Ohio over the course of five trips there. A pictorial guide to my favorite Ohio things:
Image

Image-Cedar Point

Image-in Columbus

Image-view from one window of the top floor of the OSU library, I prefer the view looking towards downtown Columbus but I couldn't find it.

You live in Syracuse? I've been to your city. It's really boring.

I can do boring. I can't do places without anywhere to eat coupled with terrible weather. I can't describe how much I'd rather be in Rochester.

I might be in Columbus starting next fall, but I hear it's pretty nice.

This job is in Mount Vernon, about 40 miles outside of Columbus I'd say. I've only ever passed through it on my way to Nashville.

I seem to recall that it's quite flat.

A lot of corn between Cleveland and Columbus...

I love Cleveland, Akron, and Columbus. What town are you looking at. Lancaster is super dull.

Sorry, you said. Mount Vernon.

I grew up in Akron and went to school in Columbus, so I drove that stretch of I-71 a lot. There are few places on earth as boring as Ohio between Akron and Columbus.

B, how's OSU/Columbus at-large? Coming from a graduate school/not a football fan really perspective.

Ohio isn't as lame as people outside of Ohio make it to be. But it's still pretty damn boring most of the time.

Worst state's drivers:

1. Massachusetts (by far and away)
2. New Jersey
3. Ohio
4. Michigan
5. Florida

I used to make the drive to Nashville frequently and DREADED going through Ohio. What the fuck is the deal with people in Ohio not grasping the concept of the fast lane. I-81 in Virginia is plagued by the similar problem. Fucking assholes just gum up the works.

This company is pursuing me pretty aggressively... they said I'd be qualified at least one other position.

Is it worth the stretch? *sigh*

Will they pay for your schooling so you can go back and get your AA degree?

Bad joke about an associates degree. Sorry. Carry on with talk of Ohio.
