About 15 steps, but I travel to visit clients about twice a month and that can be anywhere from 60 miles to several hundred.

I'm pretty well contained- office phone/VPN/fax.

revvy has me beat I only do 60 miles one way by the most direct route on the back roads about 1.5 hours average, If I were to go via the interstate it would be 90 miles and 2+ hours on a good day in rush hour. There is no public transportation option for me so I drive a diesel Beetle that gets almost 50mpg and listen to a lot of audio books.

36km each way and this year with a new helper it has been 6 days a week - only had 2 saturdays off since april.

There was an older thread about this, which I can't find. So how far do you travel, one way, to work?

i think i made that thread ages ago...

I travel about 32.6 miles to work (one way). I live so far away b/c the rent is cheap ($675).

about the same here, 33 miles, rent is about $400 cheaper out here.... it's about 45 mins in the morning and a little over an hour at night coming home...

 

[homebrewer_99]

32 right now. It has been 54 and 92 in the past.

 

[TeufelBrew]

22 but I quite driving. Employeer began providing mass transit passes. I read on my commute now.

 

[Yooper]

Approximately 10 steps. From the coffeepot in the kitchen, to my desk in the office!

I still visit clients in their homes and pick up my work mail at the hospital, but mostly I work at home. I fill in in other departments at the hospital, and on those days it's a 2 mile commute each way.

Seems that there are a good number of telecommuters here.

Maybe that explains my high post on HBT

 

[shecky]

Depends on the day. Some days at home. Some days in the office 7 miles away. Most days at the campus, which is 60 miles from my house. Good part there is that I use a company vehicle and that requires only going to the garage at the office to grab one.

Then again, some days the commute is a plane to some lovely place like Morgantown, W.Va. It is quite nice there, actually.

 

[CBBaron]

8 mile bicycle ride to work.
Perfect distance to get in a nice ride without taking up too much time.

I had about 1 year where my commute was about a 1 hour drive. I do not know how you can put up with wasting even more of your time than that. If my commute was that far I would be either looking for a new job or a new place to live. I'm not going to waste 3 hours of my time a day even if it didn't cost me $30-$40 a day to do it.

[GilaMinumBeer]

14 Miles. Or around 15 minutes if I leave the house before 7:20am but, if I leave the house just 2 minutes late (7:22am) it becomes a 30 to 45 minute commute.

 

[zoebisch01]

12 miles one way roughly. It's a beautiful drive though.

 

[wildwest450]

234 miles. Of course I drive in a giant circle so that's half way.

 

[EdWort]

15.2 miles one way. Costs me about a gallon of gas each day to commute.

 

[Evan!]

1.1 miles each way.

 

[flyangler18]

1.1 miles each way.

Near perfect. :rockin:

 

[Brewer3401]

29 miles each way - until the end of this year.

Becoming self employed 01-01-09

Then will be 0 miles each way.

Which is nice.

 

[Lost Pirate]

10 miles each way.

 

[MA_Brewer]

30 Miles each way. 290 to 495 to the Pike. It sucks.

 

[Yunus]

60 miles each way. About 1.25 hours to get to work and 1.5 hours to get home. But I work from home on thursday's

 

[ohiobrewtus]

I'm about 12 miles round trip.

 

[quixotic]

3 miles, on a free bus.

 

[John_Peters]

About 19 miles one way. I take public transport, so its 1.5 hours each trip...I spend 3 hous of my life, each day, traveling to and from work.

If I drove it would take about 35-40 minutes, but I can't afford the exhorbitant prices DC garages charge.

 

[RiverSwillBeer]

65 miles one way. Cant find a Tech job in the sticks

 

[sflcowboy78]

i have to drive about 30 miles eachway

 

[Brett3rThanU]

I take the bus to work and it's about 4 miles each way. I LOVE living so close to downtown Houston, however housing costs are a lot higher than the suburbs.

 

[BarleyWater]

31.5 there and 30.5 home, the exit ramp sucks going to my building. I bet sflcowboy78 has a similar drive to mine (to and from the same cities).

Like someone else said, I really don't mind the ride, and it's when I get to listen to my podcasts (Sunday Session, Brew Strong, The Jamil Show, Basic Brewing Radio, and a couple from NPR)

 

[RC0032]

When i'm in the office 4.2 miles, ~ an hour door step to door step and $1.75 on the CTA El train. When i'm not in the office a plane is usually involved
