I used to spend an hour each way now i spend about 15-20 minutes. I had to pay a lot more to live where i do now than i was paying an hour away though.

A guy from one of the places I work with used to live literally a 30 second walk from his house to his workplace. At lunch, in the middle of a Toronto winter, he could run across the street in his t-shirt for lunch and watch a little Price is Right while everyone else is stuck in the cafeteria.

The dumb bastard gets married. She won't move away from the family. The family lives in Peterborough. This is like a 2 hour drive each way to downtown Toronto. He had the perfect situation and [censored] it up for a broad, the usual thing. Now, instead of being totally relaxed, well-rested and therefore envied, he's a laughing stock and a tired wreck.

Word. My goal is to never have to commute if I do not have to. I'm going to live by my work. You lose to much time by sitting in a fcking car.

I had to commute to work daily when i was in high school when I worked for my dad in construction. That BLOWS and I refuse to do that again. Luckily I'm doing law and should not have a problem living close to work [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
