What is your commute like? (1 Viewer)

Yeah, I just don't understand this. Three friggin hours a day? It is simply not an option.

But you should see their 2 story entry way and the great room!

Fly somewhere ~10 days a month, work from home the rest.

This is me.

See, I don’t get this - I may have a longish commute but I almost never travel.  I’m home to eat dinner with my family every night and put the kids to bed.

I get it I’m just teasing. 

I fly prob 6 days a month. Actually enjoy the travel at that level. But the other days I’m home when the kids get off the bus, can take them to sports and events etc.

This is going to sound very judge-y- but how does it take you 25-30 minutes to go 4 miles in Fort Mill, SC?  Do you bike every day?

Not judgey, the county planners suck. They've allowed about 11,000 new home starts / multi-family units to be built over the last few years and did nothing to improve the infrastructure. They are addressing it now, after-the-fact but it's going to be painful. The main cause for the delay is I have to drive through one of the main avenues to get onto the interstate in the county so it backs up and you just sit. There really isn't anyway around it because I work directly on the other side of it so going around just puts you in the same traffic but one exit down.

No lie, biking is a viable option when they start work on the interchange. There are sidewalks all the way except for the last 1/2 mile or so. That's the part that worries me, there is no place for you to ride and I don't trust the drivers here enough to undertake that.
