They actually called you to talk you out of interviewing for the job - because they thought the commute wouldn't work out? And spent an hour on the phone - talking you out of it? Whoa. That's insane.
I've had over 100 job interviews in my lifetime, and interviewed people for jobs - and that's a new one. I've never anyone do that before. I'm trying to remember if we ever did it at my organization? No. We hire people with two hour to three hour commutes. We did ask them if they had any issues working out in the vicinity, but that's it.
There are people commuting to Jamaica, Queens from Stamford, CT, and from New Jersey. Also people commuting to Manhattan from Northport, Seaford, Hicksville, Suffolk County, Long Island, and Glenn Cove, not to mention Montauk. We're talking two-three hour commutes in some instances, both ways.
I also know people commuting from Beacon to Jamica, Queens.
