I've had that count against me at times.  At one point, I interviewed at a
company in West Warwick(?) RI.  I told them that I looked forward to
working there because after work I'd see about earning a Masters at
Brown.  Their reaction was effectively, "after work?  What's that?"  Since
then, I don't understand how people can work there, but since the company
is clearly successful, maybe all their employees are interested in is
money?
