| My impression is that they can indeed start you out that quick--my three-month lead time is an exception. The new hire package seems to assume a start date of a week or two, at most, after receipt. I also find it unlikely that they'll withdraw the offer.

I'm sure this question has been asked before, but I'll go ahead anyways. My start date at the patent office is May 29. I'm not from the area and am looking for an apt or townhouse in Alexandria. Are there any apartment complexes anyone recommends? Or, the opposite, are there any places to avoid? Thanks -

| There are so many complexes that there's no point in telling you which you should avoid. Go to apartmentratings.com and see the place before you agree to live there.

| Why did you go through the hassle to apply if you don't want to live there? I agree with the housing problem.. that's why I didn't apply.
