Hah, hah, hah, hah! It used to be a bit risky to travel to and from our work because we had to go through neighborhoods I'd rather not have, but now that we are retired, we have zero risk. Yayyyy. There is life after work!

Hi there sindhu88! I usually travel around 10 minutes to my workplace from our home. That is if there is not much traffic. If I were to consider traffic, that would take me about 20 minutes drive. If I were to walk, it would take about 30 minutes to 45 minutes walk.

Hi. With me, i am working and actually it took 1 and 1/2 hours everyday going to my work. So I have to prepare at least 3 hours before my shift. Sometimes, i experience traffic, so it take2 hours sometimes.

Its great yar 1-1/2 hour means it is very risky.I think ur patience levels increased a lot. Then how do u spend that one hour u wil go to sleep or listen to muzic.Or else watch surrondings?

Hi sindhu, Nice topic. I travel to my office about 30-40km distance.It takes about 45minutes to reach my office because I ride my motobike.That is the only vehicle that practically used to travel this far.Besides,I can avoid from trafic congestion because I can sneak in between cars or lorries. besides, i can save more for petrol.

YA travelling by two wheelers saves lots of time and also easy to go with out risks.We can easily move between heavy vehicles. I think u enjoy riding bikes it seems becaz 30-40 kms on bikes gr8 according to me.

I'm not sure distance wise, but it would usually take me 20 mins to get to work, 30 mins tops with heavy traffic, which sometimes happen in the afternoon. It's a pretty straightforward drive for me, no need to jump on a freeway or a toll road. I simply take the streets to get to work. I remember there was I time I have a job, that it usually take me 45 mins to an hour to get to work, and that is fighting busy traffic on the freeway. Boy, I'm glad I don't have to do that now these days.

I am only thirty minutes away from work, and I ride a passenger jeepney with that. Before I used to hail a taxi so I won't be late at work because of the traffic but now that I have found a new job, I do not need a taxi to avoid being late. As I only take a few minutes to reach my work, I could save more money and spend them on credit card bills instead! lol! I aim to spend my savings more on worthwhile things but for the meantime, savings go to monthly billings.

I live 20 miles from my job. How long it takes depends on the volume of traffic. Typically it takes 25-30 minutes. It has average risks, I guess. It's mostly highway driving.

I can take around one hour to go work, but that depends where is the office located? because I live close to the main street on my city, so I can select what kind of transportation would I want to take?, that mean this situation is not hard to me; I think that is an advantage to live in the downtown because everything is near to me...

I live in the downtown so i think that is an advantage because I´m abble to walk around 10 minutes and then I can get whatever kind of transportation that I want to go to any place, so usually I spend around one hour to go work,but that is depends how long is the distance according to the job?
