I am 35 minutes from work with traffic. My husband's commute is 45 minutes. Blech. How long is your commute?
-
25 minutes for both of us (since we work at the same place)
-
45 minutes. It doesn't bother me too much because its my 'refresher' time. After being with a bunch kids for 7 hours, I enjoy my quiet moments on the way home. However, gas prices suck!
DH's commute is 10 minutes -_-
-
With typical morning traffic, from daycare to Wagon Sr.'s work is usually between 30-50 mins. Then another 10 mins after I drop him off to get to my work. So it's pretty long. But it sure beats dealing with and paying for public transportation. I found out I am eligible for parking at my work (and only $90/month, which is a STEAL in Boston) so we drive in together now and I love it.
If we leave even 10 minutes earlier, the commute drops to 20-30 mins. Too bad we always snooze the alarm...
-
10 minutes. I'm pretty lucky.
-
12 minutes! Takes a few minutes longer if i have to drop off LO.
-
Zero, work from home! But before that it used to be 1-1.5 hours which is why I asked to WFM after LO came. It was not do-able for me after 3 months of returning to work. I had to also add daycare commute time on top of that!
-
53 miles so about 1 hour to work. Going home can take 1.5 to 3 hours...depending on traffic. Ugh!
-
@autumnlove: where do you live/work? Do you drive or take public transportation?
-
@mediagirl: I drive to LA. I have never explored public transportation but it would prob involve the train to downtown and a few buses! Can't wait to work more from home or part time in May!
-
15 minutes on most days, but once a week I go into Boston and it's about 90 minutes each way when you calculate time to get to the train station, etc.
-
Zero... I'm a SAHM. But my husband has about 20 minutes with no traffic. We used to live farther but moved and cut his commute in half. He's loving it.
-
@autumnlove: WOW. LA traffic suckssss..
Sorry your commute is SO long!
-
When I drive 45 min to an hour but when I take the bus, it's about an hour and a half. I can usually sleep on the bus so I don't mind.
-
@chopsuey119: 405!
-
@autumnlove: Omg I hate the 405! Worst freeway ever..
-
I'm lucky, 10 mins at the most.
-
15-20 minutes on foot.
-
Mine isn't too bad, I can normally make it to work in 20 minutes! DH is right about the same between 20-25 minutes. But geez with gas prices as $4/gallon I wish I could just walk or take the bus, but there aren't any buses that go by my house
-
I work from home and love the commute!
DH has about a 40 minute commute, soon to be 30 minutes or shorter.
-
75+ min for 24 miles....
-
I go into the city 3x a week, and without traffic 45 mins, with traffic 90 minutes.
-
0 minutes!
-
45 minutes for the hubby, and 40 minutes for me if I take the train. If I have to drive, then it's closer to 1.5 hours accident free, but with traffic and up to 2-2.5 hours with accidents. Oi vey.
-
10-12 minutes door to door. It's one of the reasons I really don't want to move out of our neighborhood! My husband's commute is the same amount of time (maybe a few minutes less), just in the opposite direction.
ETA: I travel for work sometimes several times a week, and that commute is either 45 minutes one way, or 1.5 hours one way; depending on where I need to go.
-
I'm 9 miles away from the office & it's usually about 20-30 minutes. This morning it was 1.25 hours! Not a good start to the week.
-
40min one way.
-
35 minutes. DH's is 10-15. I'm jealous
-
I'm a 45 minute walk, 25 minute subway ride or a 10 minute cab ride! I usually take the subway though.
-
15 minutes on a good day, 30-45 on a bad day. We only live 6 miles from my office and I can take surface streets or the highway. My husband's commute is different every week since he's an auditor and is always at different client locations.
-
About 90 minutes. I took a new job further from home so it involves 3 different trains (and passes) now. So worth it for the job but sometimes the commute gets old.
-
@ChopSuey119 and @AutumnLove: You mean the 405 Parking Lot? *augh* That's awful. I don't live in LA, but I used to travel a ton for work, and have had plenty of experience with the 405.
-
I stay home now so 0 minutes
But it was about 20-25 before & it is about the same for DH now
-
I'm 10-15 depending on traffic, DH is 30 minutes.
Sorry your commute is SO long!
