i am lucky, i am only about 20 minutes from work if i walk (which sometimes i do). but here in ontario (canada) where i live, a lot of people live in my city and work in toronto (the financial capital of canada) and although its only about 60 miles to get there, it takes about 2 hours to get there during rush hour...
how about you? and how is rush hour traffic where you live?

There are lucky people who have only few minutes to commute to work and even luckier ones who work at home and dont leave their house to work somewhere.
My work place is about 30 minutes from home if not traffic. I have 3 short rides to reach the office. If I have to use our car, i can get there in about 20minutes if without traffic. If it is rush hour and heavy traffic, it will take more than an hour to commute.

Oh I am about 20 miliseconds away from work. I make and sell things online =]
It is a fun job to have, and I trully appreciate everyone who tries to start their own business, it is a LOT of work, and takes a lot of dedication and time. I doubt I could ever do that.

I drive to work and it takes me about 15 minutes to get there in the morning. But traffic is so bad at nights that it takes me more than double that time to get back home. Things can get really frustrating when you are just stuck in traffic with nothing to do in the car for a long time.

It takes me 45 minutes to commute from our home to my workplace. Morning, you're already stressed because of the trip and then the work itself is very stressful. When you're off your work, you want to rest but you can't because you are faced another 45 minutes of travel from work to our home.. :D

I think I am one of the lucky ones. I have no commute at all. I work from home and still make as much as I would out in the public.
