| I spent about 2 hours commuting per day (approx), but luckily it is on a commuter rail train and I can walk from my house to the station (about .7 miles) and also from the station to my office (a few blocks). It's actually quite relaxing! On the train I browse the internet, do some reading, watch movies on my PDA, and so on. Much more "civilized" than my old commute -- packed into the subway! And much better all around than driving.- Jeffhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/JeffS |

The decision factors for selecting my current job were significantly different then those of my first (IT) job. My number 1 factor was distance from home, the tie breaker was that there was a (golf) driving range 1/4 mile away from my office. Although I'm about 5 miles from home, the range closed about 3 months after I started work  >>mine is 20 min walk or 10 min on roler blades. pretty cool...That is cool! Do you really RB to work? Did you ever get those springy-bouncy things so you could bound over obsticles on your way in?Be One with the OptimizerTG |
