My first job as an intern was in a suburban office park. There wasn’t anything of significance within walking distance and our office didn’t have anything in the way of food/snacks. So a few of us would group up and attempt to cross the street to get to the gas station on occasion. It was a nightmare. Not a far walk at all, but it took forever to wait for traffic. And even when it cleared, you had to be super attentive as people in the burbs aren’t used to people trying to cross the street. I hated it and I’m glad I don’t work there anymore, but I had little say in where I worked at the time.
