How long does it take you to get to work? How long does it take you to get to work? Seattle traffic really sucks, it can vary from 25 minutes to 50 minutes (if there's an accident or whatnot). At the rate gas prices are, I think my daily 30 mile (round-trip) commute costs me $5 a day in gas alone! Carpooling would be good for me if my schedule wasn't so wacky. And it seems no matter how high gas prices go, around here, it doesn't matter, as the amount of traffic remains the same... Do you have to pay any tolls to get to work? Do you take the subway, train, bus, or carpool to work? |
work???? Hmmmmmm, well for 14 years it was 5 min, but that was over three years ago. Now, as long as it takes be to stand up out of bed. :D :D :D |
When I drive to work it takes me about an hour to get to work. Then I'd have to park in the parking garage ($16) and walk 2blks to work from there. The way home is WAY worse and it would take me over and hour and a half in the car. That's 28 miles roundtrip. So I take the bus and train. The train drops me off a block away and its 2.50 each way. It takes me an hour from the time I am standing on my corner waiting for the bus to get to my offc door and and hour and 15 on the way home :) |

I live 12 miles from work. 45 MINUTES TO GET THERE! On the days I work from home, I just love it! If I work really late or run out to the office on a weekend it is 20 minutes, tops. |

LOL Noon your time!!!!:) :) :) :) :) Only took me 5 min, I worked right down the street.:p :p :p |
I am a housewife but My Husband has a courier business and it costs him $300 aweek in gas. Now if anybody has a reason to complain about gas prices we do!! |
Well here in MO, we dont have trains or buses to take us to work, lol! It takes me 5 minutes to get to work! On a busy day.....maybe 5 minutes and 15 seconds :rolleyes: |
Well with the stop lights it takes me about 10-12 minutes to get to the train station, another 5 minutes to park and walk to the train, 35 min. train ride and the station is right below the building. Cost of the train ride is 3.35 EACH WAY!!! But it's cheaper than paying for gas and $22 for parking at my work. It sucks but it's better than getting stuck in traffic. I wish I could work from home or NOT WORK AT ALL :D Hell at this point, I'd even be happy with working in the same city that I live in. |
It depends on which route I take... Fastest, less than 5 min. Slowest, maybe 12 mins. |
um..it takes me about 5 seconds..i work out of my home. so as soon as my feet hit the floor im at work!!:D :D :D :D :D |
It takes me 20 minutes. 3 minutes to get to work, 17 minutes to get my coffee from Starbucks. |
anywhere from 2-3 minutes!:p I work just a couple of blocks from my house!:D |
My commute is 40 minutes to 1 hour depending on traffic. I don't really mind the commute unless I'm running late, which has been daily for the last month :D I don't have to pay for parking so that's a bonus |
Yeah, I've always wanted to work from home. You all that can are very lucky to be able to! Now only if I could do that... ;) |

When I did work it was 30-40 minutes to drive to school and then another 20 from there. Sometimes, it was more because of school buses, slow drivers on country roads, etc. Man, I don't miss it! ;) |
I'm about 5 miles from work...so about 5-10mins with traffic. Sometimes I do work from home. But usually only if I'm sick. |
I live 12 blocks from my work, takes me about 2-4 minutes.. with 2 stop signs and 2 stop lights..:D |
My commute is about 12 minutes, 5 miles. The really good part is that I only work 3 day a week. Desiree:) |

It takes me about 40 minutes to an hour -- this includes walking from my house to the train station, taking the train from Brooklyn to Manhattan and then getting off the train and walking 1 block to my job. :) The GOOD news is that I only take the train to work. Hubby drives into Manhattan and picks me up every night after work. He's such a doll. :) :) |
Almost an hour from my driveway to the town where I work. Luckily it's pretty much solid driving - no stop and go city traffic - but when I get behind an old farm truck or somebody hauling equipment it's a pain! I actually enjoy commuting to a different town for work because living in a small town like I do, it's nice to get away from all those nosy people to a place where "nobody knows your name"! I've always had people say that it must be such a pain to commute but really I don't mind because it probably takes me just as long to get to work coming from a different town as it does for some of my coworkers who live in this town to get through traffic. |
Before I retired (12 years ago) it took 20 to 30 minutes to get to my job. It is appx. 12 miles to the job. I am still on the Board for our Credit Union and now it takes 45 min to 1-1/2 hrs. to go the same distance because of all the traffic. (And if there is an accident or anything, forget it! You will just miss the meeting!!) Our area is really building, and no one is doing anything about fixing or building more roads. Traffic is a real pain! But it is still a great area to live in. You just have to adjust your departure time when you go anywhere. |
it takes me 20 minutes to get to work,, and takes me 30 minutes to get home |
If I am working in my studio at home it takes about 10 seconds....if I am working at my in-town studio it takes 3 minutes. I used to commute to Manhatten and when I stopped I said Never Again!!!!!I absolutely love working at home...I keep really bizarre hours and have to constantly deleniate my time so that I have off time and don't work an on and off schedule from morning until bedtime.Otherwise I feel like I never have a break. Recently.. I have painted six new commissions and have about six in front of me. I am currently working on Shana's Penny, Chloe, And Tinkerbell!!!!Great subjects.:) |
