How long is your work commute?

Rimsy · 19 Sep 2019 at 19:09

25-40 min depending on traffic. Used to be from one side of London to the other which was hell so 40 mins sat in a car in the country is still more favourable!
Ideally would like a bikable commute but simply not feasible currently.

30 seconds as I've got an office at the bottom of the garden. But when I go into the office once or twice a week it takes about an hour

5 mins

Currently 30 minutes drive, can be more than 60 minutes if it rain's because no one knows how to drive. Soon to move to UK so no idea on that commute time.

I dont walk to work even though i am only a couple of miles from it ... because i dont want to.
Would take me what? 30 mins easy to walk it, sod that i can drive in 3 and the rest of the time is spent getting coffee down me.

5 meters or so.

15 seconds, out of bed to the kettle.

20 min walk or 5 mins in the car.

20 minutes there and 40 back by car one day a week, 75 minutes by bus each way twice a week and two days a week working from home. I think 90 minutes driving each way was my limit and I wouldn't want to go back to that.

125 miles each way (or 1.5 to 2 hours depending on the morons driving on the road at the same time)

Is it worth it?!

I do it 3x a week and am pretty well rewarded for it. Plus, I have a daily hack SEAT Ibiza which does all that on +/-£70 of diesel.

About 10 minutes if quiet, 15-20 if busy. Mostly straight roads on 40-60mph areas.

Fair enough

However long it takes to go from my bed to my office, about 5 seconds. The joys of being home based.

You work at a kettle?

Honestly that would drive me crazy. I go mad at the weekends if I don't have a reason to leave the house.

I go to the gym 11-12 each day so I’m not a total hermit during the week!

From bedroom to office, 10 seconds

When I go to our office maybe once a week, maybe less, it's 75 miles each way. So 1.5-2 hours.

Between 3.5 miles and 10 miles on a bicycle, and 16-22 miles back, not sure on time, 15-1 hour.
