    Do you have to spend a long time going to and from work or school?

    Mine takes ~40 mins. or so. ~30 mins. in the morning & ~40 mins. back home. Most of it is waiting for the bus or train.

    From the time I start my car until the time I shut the gas off again? About four and a half minutes. I listen to music in my car and I can only ever get through, like, a song and a third.

    Work is a mile away so it only takes a few minutes by car.

    Had this thread popped up a few weeks ago I would have been the winner. And by that I mean the loser. It was multiple hours, put it that way, and very unpleasant. ¬_¬

    BUT. I have moved now. Just a 15 minute walk these days

    I was home schooled all my life, so it only took me as long as it took to get out of bed, which some time can be pretty long until Dad yelled at me and I went into the bathroom for a few extra minutes of sleep.

    I'm self-employed so now I just need to get to my computer.

    I messed my knee up a few months ago so I had to get a real job to pay bills for now. soo I've been driving an hour or a little less depending on construction. It's a 27 mile drive but parts are dirt and up over a mountain.

    It usually takes me 15 minutes to drive to work, unless tehre is a lot of traffic. If there is, it might take half an hour.

    Thirty three miles and 45 minutes. The first 20 minutes or so are backroads.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    Ok so it used to be 10 mins...walking. I had that for almost 3 years. It was so easy that I could walk home for lunch. It eventually became too mundane to enjoy. Now it takes me about 30 mins worth of train and walking, and the diversity of both, with the unpredictability of each days trek makes it more enjoyable than any short walk could ever be.

    10 minute walk to train via the park though this can sometimes be done under that especially if I don't walk
    30 minute train ride
    10 minute subway ride
    2 minute walk to work

    Better than my commute before which was basically 2 hours both ways.

    I got approved to move to a place right next to the train but I opted for a less expensive and quieter area. You couldn't hear the train coming in unless they used the horn though.
