How far do you commute to work?

Biohazard · 27 Jul 2008 at 20:13

Its actually 3.4 miles, didn't think it was that much. Anyway not bad for half an hour with my mp3 player!

mmm 30k + callout to do 80 miles mmm

20miles atm. My limit would be 1hour each way rather than specific miles. I commuted from Northampton to Oxford for a few weeks and that was around 45mins if i was really lucky or an hour most of the time. That was 51 miles each way so my max would be 100miles round trip a day. So i would say potentially you will be fine at 80miles a day if its not to bad for traffic.

I work on two sites. One is 2 miles away and takes about 4 minutes, the other is 12 miles away and takes about 25 minutes.

Why would you even bother to start the car for 2 miles?

Do you need to take anything to work, or is it just lazyness?

What's it got to do with you? I could be disabled for all you know :confused:

Actually, I do sometimes walk, it takes about half an hour. Normally, however, I like to come home for my lunch, so I can't if I walk in.

Is that good enough for you?

Because I asked, thats why. Don't post it if you don't want comments tbh!

I just looked in your profile and saw IT and automatically thought fat *******!

That chicken and fries for lunch?

Ace Modder · 27 Jul 2008 at 20:51

It was a totally ridiculous comment. I'm not a porker by any definition, I also use my car to get to the gym which is 7 miles away. Would you like me to walk there too

That's where I used to work and where they want me to come back too.. now I recognise that ST220....

Who did you work for?

I had the yellow leon cupra - only one at SSE Bartons Road...

I see from a pervious post you work for SGN dispatch - must be on shift then? You lot regularly got me out on call, but the software is sh1te

Normal base is a 40 mile round trip (anything from 40 to 60 minutes) but last week I was in Basingstoke which was a 120 mile round trip which took a minimum of 1 hour 45 mins, don't think I'd want to do that on a regular basis.
