I used to have a really short commute until I moved my office a couple years ago. Now, my typical commute takes 20-30 seconds. It was much shorter when it was just down the hall from my bedroom. Now I have to walk down the hall and down the stairs.
and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8) d.v. Musings on TDS

Currently, it’s down the hallway to my office. When they May us start going back in to the office, it’s 45 miles one way. If my former co-workers job from the AF comes open, it’s 7 miles from the house and I hope to be able to transfer to it. It’s a hefty pay raise as well if I can get it. For now, I’ll stick with down the hall.

17 miles one way. Used to be just 4 stop lights, but now it's 6 and I suspect more to come in the coming years as growth keeps filling in all the open space.
Laws aren't preventative measures. In other words, more laws won't prevent gun crime from happening.

About 20 blocks and two stoplights from my home to my office. 3-5 minutes. 20 blocks AND 2 stoplights? that eliminates 95% of SD towns as possibilities where you live

I'm a bit less than a mile from work one way. It takes about three minutes to drive, six to bike, or fifteen to walk. If I go home for lunch at 5 AM and ignore all the traffic laws call it a minute and a half.

Pahick: I haven't commuted in 24 (twenty four!) years now since I retired. Moved to a state back then, that has very low taxes, so's I will never be "commutin" again. But you's guy's keep hittin the traffic jam's every day so's my retirement/pension funds won't get low. Aaahhhh.... the life of Riley! Hold into the wind VarmintGuy
