It seems in my city there is traffic no matter where we go. It use to be only certain roads where pronged to traffic now it seems that even the small roads are always congested. I do know your feeling of towards all the congestion as I use to be exactly the same when I worked at my last job. It was suppose to be a 25 minute ride and never once did I ever get to work in under one hour and fifty minutes. It totally spoiled my mornings as well.

I absolutely hate getting stuck in traffic and I feel like you that it ruins my whole day. I think that if I am late in the mornings that it sets the pace for the rest of the day and I will lag behind. That is why I always like to get where I am going just a tad earlier this way if something happens on the way I will not be late or anything. I usually don't get in a bad mood at work when I am late but I just feel as if I am running behind on everything and don't have much time. I guess I feel more in a rush when I am late than when I am early or on time.

It won't, you can't do anything about traffic, unless you drive a tank and then you can run over all those stupid people who just can't seem to find their way to work even though they have been doing it for at least a year. Listen to some heavy metal music to release your anger so when you get to work you'll be all Kenny G, smooth, relaxed, calm.

A very simple solution to a very simple problem. Come in early.

traffic will ruin my day if it will get in the way of my work or when I am hurrying up. I do not like people waiting up for me.

hi, Naturally we all are sufferers of traffic jams and stranded for few minutes on the way to work. What I do to avoid these to certain areas where I know I will be caught in traffic I prefer to move in local train. Whenever I am stranded by traffic I call up client and explain him my difficulty and request him to kindly wait for me. In this way most of my thing run smooth. At least we will try to minimize the effect of traffic on our work. Hope my answer helps Calpro

I rarely get stranded in a traffic and when I do, I just try to take the advice of a good friend of mine. He told me never to get angry, just close my eyes and meditate or if you believe in God just pray that He will give you patience and try to think positive. Sometimes I would think that if the traffic didn't hold me back I might have gotten into an accident. I guess I'm just being too positive.

Don't feel that it will get any better in my part of town. There is so much congestion on the roads every morning and evening. Heading into the city from my part of town is really cumbersome, because there are lots of business men and other commuters heading to New York City. I expect that traffic will only become worse, as there isn't much shoulder space that would accommodate an extra lane. Think next Monday will be a really bad traffic day, and so I'm going to leave for work early.

No one wants to be stranded in a traffic, but some times life i s like that. You got no choice but to go through it. If you have to go to work, you have to face the traffic, even when want to go back home, it's the same. No choice. Unless of course you are a politician with police to clear the traffic for you..... haha.
