Sure, the commute between Cedar Rapids & Ankeny for a part-time, temporary, internship, would have been tough to justify, but then again, I remember driving to Des Moines for a job interview at a Catholic newspaper in 1992. I didn't get the job because I sucked at job interviews.
The reason I would have been interested in this job has more to do with where I was outside of my career. On 2/22/1992, Karen and I were already serious. I knew I was going to propose to her after I graduated from college. I knew that the probable way to being able to do that was to have a job. An internship at Casey's hopefully would have led to that permanent position. Yes, that 2 hour commute would have been tough, but I knew Karen was the woman for me to be with for the rest of my life and if driving 4 hours a day to a part-time, temporary, internship in Ankeny would get me to my goal, then I sincerely believe I would have done that.
