4:30 PM hit and I was ready to take off out the door as normal to head home, but on my way out I had to pick up some supplies. The cashier asked me for my area code, a customer tracking type thing, and when I gave it to her she was surprised that I drive as far as I do for work.
Anyhow, I drive 30 miles each way for work and hate every minute of it because it is all stop and go traffic. It takes between an hour to two hours to get either to the office, or home mattering on traffic. I do it because I enjoy my job, most of the time, and because I have a good foot in the door for future advancement if I make that my goal.
Anyone else have a lousy commute? Do you do it because you enjoy the job, or because it has become habit?
I can’t imagine what I would do with the time saved with having a short commute again; probably spend more time with Riley, and that’s way better than sitting in traffic. Then again days like today are the worst; a fire has the freeway shut down and it’s a holiday weekend, so I just went back upstairs to my office and caught up on some long missed PT.
