How far is your daily commute
« on: March 09, 2011, 12:58:52 pm »
What I am curious about is how far is your daily commute and do you use any form of public transportation like bus or train?

4 days a week I commute 8 miles & 1 day a week I commute 20 miles, one way. I live in the country so there is no public transportation available.

I have been working at my current job for 4 1/2 years and I am not quite sure how many miles away I work.  My guess is that am 12 miles from Home and Work.

It's 17 steps from my bed to my computer chair and I don't use public transportation, just my own 2 feet.

its one hour on the nose, 30 minutes each way.
i usually give myself 40 minutes of drive time though.
i like to get there a little early, or make time for
traffic/unexpected stuff  :thumbsup:

My commute is 130 miles round trip three days a week.  I work at home the other 2.  What can you do?

Some days it is up to 150 miles one way, depending on location of job. In construction business, go where the work is!

Right now it is ten miles to work for my day job and ten miles home and twenty five miles to work for my night time job and a twenty five mile return. In April I have a delivery job as well that will have me driving 30 miles to work/30 miles back and about 200 miles in deliveries.

I work five days a week, and am lucky enough to only travel about 2 miles through town. There is public transportation, but it is quicker and easier to drive myself. Even on days when I have to carpool with my husband, it is a really good deal.

About 30 feet from my bedroom to my den.

I would say about 35 feet.  It was about 8 miles round trip before I retired the last time.  The money isn't as good but I like this job better..lol   :wave: :wave:

My "main" job. Not far....from the bedroom to the living room.

My "side" job (and the one I do for fun). 10 miles maybe roundtrip. I live fairly close to the pool I coach at....I'm pretty sure that it's within 5 miles.
