What's your work commute? POLE!!!

[NutBucket]

About 18 miles one way. I leave for work at 5:30am and it takes about 30 minutes. I leave work between 3 and 5...at least an hour back.

Yet another poll about work commute.

1.95 miles, <5 minutes, 5 traffic lights. 4am-1pm, Mon-Fri.

 

[HeXen]

12 minutes. I get up at 5:am. Leave for work at 6 am, get there about 12 minutes after 6 and work starts at 7am. But working construction I then have to drive a work truck to the job which could range from 30 seconds away to 2.5 hrs away and I don't get paid for the drive back to the shop unless I'm hauling over 26,000 lbs.

needs more poll options...

About 25km, and it's pretty much all highway. I answered less than 30mi without traffic. I do deal with some traffic going to work on afternoon shift, and coming home from work on day shift.

 

[Fingolfin269]

Takes about 12 minutes to get to work.

 

[ImpulsE69]

about 20 feet.

 

[WiseUp216]

4.5 miles, 10 minutes

I'll never do the hour long commute thing ever again.

 

[Humpy]

15,000' straight down, then about a 20 minute swim.

MINE....1ppy.

 

[Fritzo]

I just love my new job. Instead of 35 minutes of fighting rushhour traffic on a highway forever under construction, my new commute takes me through the countryside, through a state park, past a scenic river, and then to my office. Takes like 15 minutes or less.

 

[Sixguns]

47.8 miles from my driveway to parking lot at work. Usually takes about 40 minutes

 

[Captante]

Within 5 miles

[KaChow]

I roll out of bed. Sometimes I work at a desk in my bedroom, sometimes at my dining room table so there could possibly be a flight of stairs involved.

 

[Johnnie Walker]

10-ish miles to work one way. Typically ~15 min. Pending holidays, etc.

 

[pete6032]

30 minutes door to door on the train. When it's nice out, I use the bike share program and ride to work, about 4.5 miles. Also sometimes I will bring gym clothes into work and run home with just my phone and work ID, about 6 miles.

 

[Red Squirrel]

I voted within biking distance, though I don't like to arrive to work all sweaty, and bikes don't go very well in the snow, so I drive.

2.2km, the longest part is actually the last small stretch because of the red light when crossing the highway. Usually have to wait about 2-3 minutes depending on if it turns red as I get there or if it was already red. The green is like maybe 10 seconds.

I'm not sure how people put up with the super long hour+ commutes or the complicated ones where you have to get on several buses etc. That would drive me completely insane. It's time wasted that you don't get paid for.

Fuck that. I used to commute anywhere from 75 miles to 130 miles per day. I could always count on at least 4 hours per day of driving...usually closer to 6 hours. (on top of working 10-12 hours or more)

My last job was 97 miles from my driveway to the jobsite parking lot. MOST of it on I-580. That's one part of working I DO NOT miss...

Until recently I've always been stuck with horrible 50+ minute commutes except when I lived in San Diego where lane-splitting was legal. I finally work right across the road from where I live, but due to quirks with the lights and such I can get there faster from my brother's apartment across town. I routinely do it in under 4 minutes.

 

[Dr. Detroit]

30-mile drive, 30-minutes on BART.

1hr 15 in the mornings, 1hr most evenings sometimes 90-minutes.

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

25 miles about 30 minutes with very light traffic. Most of my commute has zero traffic on county roads.

 

[TheSlamma]

My drive sucks, 35+ minutes loaded with traffic, but my work is in the burbs and there is no F'n way I'll live in the burbs again, tried that for 1 year.. NEVER again.
