In my career I've only applied for one job where a car was required. That was making genuine hand-made "faux Indian" jewelry. I have no idea why since it would have been an indoor job. But since buying a car was a deal breaker, I didn't get that one.

In my job as a "Utility Worker B" where I was to carry objects, boxes and packages, my bike was a real boon. I could get things from facility to facility in 20 minutes. It took people driving the same distance 30-40 minutes because they had to walk to their cars and the parking lots were huge.

Now I do computer graphics for TV ads. The only impact is that I live 9 miles away, so I get my exercise commuting. My bike is safely parked in a corner of the studio with the Arkansas State Police Headquarters just yards away.
