I'm interviewing at a place in Georgia on Friday. I'm from the midwest and have never been to GA before, and have 5-6 hours of free time after the interview until I need to be at the airport for the return flight. What are some things I should do/see when I'm down there? I'll be interviewing about an hour northeast of Atlanta, but have a rental car with unlimited miles.
Also Dirty South general I guess: if anyone lives/has lived down there, info about the good/bad areas, weather, etc. would be much appreciated.
I'm in Atlanta frequently. Definitely do Underground Atlanta if you're into the history of the area -- one of the oldest areas of Atlanta, under the city of course. Little Five Points for food (Tijuana Garage), bookstores, etc. It's going to be hot as the nine circles of hell; there's no other worthy description of July in Hotlanta.
Not going to look it up myself but if its close enough hang out in savannah for a goid ole fashioned confederate south time

Thanks for the info. I've been checking out houses/apts online for a while now so I'm only gonna spend maybe 30 min to an hour checking out some neighborhoods. The rest of the time I'll probably checking out Atlanta. I might even have some time Thursday since my flight gets in at like 4. Might stop by the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area on my way back to Atlanta too.

Unfortunately it's like 4 hours from Savannah, but I definitely have plans to visit if I get the job.

I've lived in Savannah for about eight months. Only been to Atlanta once, so can't really help you there. Actually, all I can really do is second the anon that warned you about the heat. The heat's pretty bad and the humidity is worse. Be prepared to be sweaty.
Good luck with the interview dude; hope you get the job.

Thanks man. That's the one thing I worry about is the humidity. I actually had an offer for my dream job, out in Cali, but they rescinded it like 3 weeks later and totally fucked me. Would have been living in a nice arid climate half way between Yosemite and Joshua Tree.
