    Share something about your daily commute.

    I wanted to share something of my tortuous daily commute to work. No wonder I'm always so stressed and grumpy by the time I get there.


    I know I should be ashamed of myself. Strangely though, I am not.

    WOW!!!!! I think I would have to be committed to a hospital if I had to endure that. Maybe some heavy meds would make it less stressful. Seriously, it only takes me 10 minutes to get to work. I did Atlanta for 2 years and said no more.

    Count your blessings and be thankful.

    My wife is trying to get back in shape (I have no problem with her shape...), today on my way to work I saw her in the middle of her 8 mile walk crossing the new pedestrian bridge they built next to the main road. Honked and waved for support...Very proud of her. Emujo

    I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic or not. That didn't seem like a bad commute. A couple stop signs shouldn't ruin your day.

    That is just brutal. And then when you go out on a service call you have to look at all those corn fields.

    I kid everyone about my drive to work also. I used to drive in the Seattle traffic. 1 hour trip to go 20 or 30 miles sometimes. Rude folks cutting in front of you etc.

    Moved out of the concreate jungle and now in the country. Drive down the canyon road. Have to watch out for deer. Have to drive along the pretty Wenatchee river and see the Cascade mountains all around me. Eagles and hawks flying all over. It's rough now.

    Hope your Cornhuskers do good this year. Huskies and Cornhuskers in the Rose Bowl.?

    I don't go to an office, I go straight to my first customer, the closest one I have to home is about 60 seconds walk, but, as a lot of my work is in South London, quite often my commute is even worse than yours LOL. 2 days ago I got stuck in traffic because some idiot decided to have an accident at a point where traffic has no way of passing, so it took nearly 2 hours to get home

    The road from hell, got stuck for ages coming home from holiday, in Somerset, then again at Stonehenge (still a better choice than the M5/M4 though), but try having to use the M25 regularly
