Title: I'm a bit jaded Post by: Spanky on September 13, 2007, 06:45:38 PM Normally I leave home at 5:30 and it takes me 20 to 25 minutes to get to work. I had to work today and left after dropping the kids off at school, around 7:30. *fudge* do I hate traffic! 50 minutes later I am finally at work.
I couldn't do that every day. You people that do I feel for you. No wonder there is road rage. Title: Re: I'm a bit jaded Post by: dystopia on September 13, 2007, 06:54:08 PM I can't stand sitting in traffic during peak commute times. Luckily, I manage to do my driving later than most people.
I just read an interesting article yesterday about an increase in people commuting before 6am to avoid traffic. http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/census/2007-09-12-commute-routine_N.htm?csp=34 Title: Re: I'm a bit jaded Post by: Uisce Beatha on September 13, 2007, 08:18:00 PM 45 minutes each way for seven years.
5 minutes each way eight years. 8 seconds down the hall for the last six weeks. Before I retire I'll be doing my work from the jacks.

Title: Re: I'm a bit jaded Post by: twoiron on September 14, 2007, 08:03:39 AM I drove an hour and half each way during peak hour for a year with my last job.
With my new job, I decided I'd rather catch the train. It's cheaper, I can read the newspaper and I don't have deal with all the cockheads on the roads.... [sm_devil] |
