How far do you drive to work?

[iwishiknew]

Just curious, how far does everyone drive to work each day? Does anyone here drive more than 50 miles one way?

I'm unemployed at the moment, but I never drove more than 15 minutes lol. The jobs I'm looking at now though are up to 45 minutes away. I've only had student jobs so far, mostly in retail, so I expect to drive further for a career job.

An hour. It sucks but you have to do what you have to do.

I live 2-3 minutes from my work.

About 8 miles for me and my partner drives about 30 miles, and around 36 miles in our other location. It definitely is more challenging for him so he tends to get to work earlier than most people in his position, but leaves before in order to skip major traffic which would make the travel time even longer.

 

Is the travel time taking a lot out of you?

[soybeans]

I live like 10-15 minutes away.

[mpeer]

1.5 hour each way to and from work.

[Teaday]

25 mins. Just enough time to transition between home and work life.

[Mercurial Girl]

5-50 mins each way depending on what site I'm on that day. I usually get $20 or something when I travel beyond 35 min so it's no big deal.

 

Sometimes I'm working right by my parents house so I just go there and raid their fridge and watch tv for lunch haha

 

Love it!!

45 mins each way plus rush hour traffic.

I take the bus and I leave the house 1 hr and 15 min before I start work. The bus is quite nice because I get a chance to read, catch up on things and observe the world.

Being Canadian I have NO idea how many miles it is from my home to my work....I know how many kilometres it is though I live outside the city where I work and it takes me about 20-30 minutes to get to work every day....(about 25km or so)...don't know how many miles that would be.

[dangletsbang]

80 miles round trip. With rush hour traffic, it's usually an hour there and an hour back.

[FYI]

It takes me about 30 seconds to get to work. Company car is right outside the door.

My father-in-law drives 65 miles each way to work every day. It takes about an hour and a half.

[pl3asehelp]

I take a train 1 hour each way, standing packed in like a sardine the whole way. But, I way prefer that to driving.

[guynextdoor]

45mins each way however that will all change by the end of the month when I get to work from home.

Negative, company downsized and basically there is only 2 people in my office so there really no need for an office. However I sometimes sell stuff on ebay and craigslist, does that count as entrepreneurship or getting rid of junk for quick cash? LOL.

[Weeb]

25 miles each way. The time varies from 30min-1 hr+ depending on traffic and when I leave.

[metrogirl]

Currently I work 10 miles from home. At my previous work site, I was 2 miles from my house.

 

I onced worked with a woman that drove 220 miles a day round trip from her home in California City to Los Angeles.

[Jetta]

I drive about 45 minutes to work every day, all the way accross town (drive through 7 cities to get to the one I work in). I'm really putting the miles on my car.
