So I have an interview at 1pm EST, in DC, a 3 hour drive. The job is through a headhunter for a in house position. I have no clue why I agreed to go but I do not think it is worth my time. Since, I will not relocate to DC. I recently just relocated. Am I obligated to go to interview or can I just email the headhunter and explain that I am not into the position. This would be my 3rd interview 1st one in person. Thoughts?

You don't have to do anything. Don't expect the headhunter to stick his neck out for your again though.
If you really need a job badly, do the interview though.

This is you're THIRD interview for a company in a city that you're not willing to relocate to? I don't get it?

First thought, right out of the box is... don't start a sentence with "So..." this is not an episode of Friends, and you are not Courtney Cox.
I didn't read any more though, sorry.
- So?zerocool
- I am Courteney Cox, so?jimbojones
- 'so' is a bridge to a qualifying statement from a scene setter. At a push it can be used as a prompt, by way of a question...Horp
- so, to beging a discussion with 'so' is to reveal a scant grasp of language skills.Horp
- (You may now offer the prompt... "So?" by way of a witty retort).Horp

Man up and go.

...or don't go, apologize profusely to the interviewer and send the headhunter a nice gift and a letter of apology if you have any idea of ever using her services again.
- I just emailed her. Said sorry for the inconvenience but i do not think this will be a good fit.zerocool

To late! It really is the headers hunters fault. She called me yesterday to tell me what to expect from this place. She made everyone sound like a complete asshole that would challenge me on my work. WTF is that! I do not need to drive 3 hours to get called out by some douche that has to prove he has a bigger dick then me. AND if that is my attitude now imagine after a 3 hour car ride.

You've obviously made up your mind. Don't go. Fuck the headhunter.
Now you can be an enlightened fucking being and let it go and let this thread die, or you can be a drama queen and keep bitching about it. If you take the second option I might still pay attention if you keep it entertaining enough to distract me from my own personal drama, where others will post pithy and maybe off color commentary on, but the first option is really best for all.
Good day sir.
- Hey the thread is only at 8! I feel like it resolved it self nicely. I was being a drama queen just wanted some back up on my decision since I have no real life friends.zerocool
