The boss at the last job that I worked at was concerned about my ability to "reliably" cover all of the 1.4 miles from my house to work since I was a car-free bike rider, but set up another interview. The day before the interview she called saying that she had to postpone it for a few days because her car was in the shop. I asked why she didn't just drive another one. She said that she only had that one and I responded that I have four bikes----and you're worried about ME getting to work. I got the job.
