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.

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.

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.

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]
